On this day 86 years ago, the first Social Security check was issued to Miss Ida May Fuller.
I remain committed to ensuring that all those who have worked their entire lives receive the entitlement they deserve in retirement.

Tonight I voted to advance five bipartisan bills that will allow us to fund 96% of our government. It also begins a two-week clock on urgent, bipartisan talks, to ensure accountability for what happened in Minnesota and to put in place concrete reforms at DHS. My full statement:
President Trump just said that he wants housing prices to stay high, at a time when so many people are already struggling to keep a roof over their heads. He couldn't be more wrong or out of touch.
It’s the American consumer who bears the brunt of President Trump’s reckless tariffs.
With families already struggling to afford basic goods, they’re paying for 96% of the cost of the administration’s wide-ranging tariffs.

While the President can talk himself into thinking prices aren't rising or that affordability is a "hoax," that's not the reality for everyday Americans, many of whom are feeling the pinch.
China dominates critical minerals markets. Securing reliable, domestic supplies will strengthen our economic and national security.
I’m leading the SECURE Minerals Act to ensure we have the tools needed to power key industries without relying on China.

Granite Staters are rightfully worried about reports that ICE plans to build a processing center in Merrimack.
It's unacceptable that DHS has repeatedly ignored requests for more information. We’re calling on Secretary Noem to provide answers to the town and its residents immediately.
Secretary Noem clearly does not know what she's doing and is not up to the job. She's lied to the American people and it’s time for her to go.
Headlines highlighting our nation's worsening affordability crisis are all too common under President Trump.
Instead of lessening the burden on Americans, the administration has slashed health care access and hiked tariffs that are forcing families to stretch every dollar.
My column in the Concord Monitor discusses her bravery and legacy:

I still remember where I was 40 years ago when we tragically lost Christa McAuliffe and the entire crew of the Space Shuttle Challenger.
A Granite State educator, Christa was committed to learning and exploration.
With increased global and economic uncertainty, ensuring New Hampshire businesses have the support they need is a top priority for my last year in Congress. It was great to join the New England Council last Friday for their Capitol Hill Report to discuss these priorities and more.
I know that many of my Republican colleagues agree that we need to restore the enhanced premium tax credits so that families can afford health care coverage. They know that Americans want Congress to act to bring down costs.
Republicans must work with us to find a bipartisan solution.
On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we honor the memories of the 6 million Jewish people and millions of others that the Nazis murdered.
Today, and every day, we must stay vigilant in the fight against antisemitism and hate.
The killing of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis was horrific and has rightly drawn deep concern from both sides of the aisle. My full statement on the shooting and the appropriations process:
If we alienate our allies and partners in Europe and Canada, the only people who are celebrating that are Vladimir Putin and Xi Jinping.
They want to separate the transatlantic alliance and undermine NATO, and the President is playing right into those interests.
People are outraged by yesterday's shooting and what they are seeing from out-of-control federal officers on the ground in Minnesota. It is horrific. An independent investigation must happen.
It was great to stop by the “Big Nansen” ski jump and check in on restoration efforts to the site.
The ski jump is an integral part of New Hampshire’s history, and I was proud to secure federal funding to help revive Big Nansen for current and future generations to enjoy.
Even before Republican-led health care cuts, access to care was a challenge in our rural communities.
In Berlin, I had the opportunity to meet with regional health care leaders to discuss these cuts and the challenges facing rural health care in New Hampshire.
As I told Mishal Husain last week, several unanswered questions remain about the long-term plan in Venezuela.
But what is clear is this: every dollar spent in Venezuela costs Granite Staters, who are worried about rising grocery and energy bills.
