Today is National First Responders Day, and I hope you will join me in thanking the firefighters, medical professionals, law enforcement officials and other emergency personnel who tirelessly work to keep Granite State communities safe.
Today we remember the 11 lives taken during the tragic and hateful shooting at Pittsburgh’s Tree of Life synagogue. Today, and every day, we must stand with the Jewish Community and stand up to antisemitism and hate in all its forms.
In just a week, open enrollment for health care on the Marketplace begins. Time is running out to extend ACA enhanced premium tax credits that help more Americans afford health insurance. If Congress doesn't act, tens of millions of Americans will face surging premiums.
We're facing a historic rise in premiums on the ACA Marketplace because Republicans in Congress refuse to work with Democrats to extend enhanced premium tax credits that make health insurance more affordable. The stakes are simply too high. We must get this done.
Senator Thune has said that he's not going to move on the Graham-Blumenthal bill until he gets a cue from the White House.   What Vladimir Putin has been doing for months now is playing President Trump.   It's time we take action and not wait for the White House.
With inflation at the highest levels since President Trump took office, we should be doing all we can to lower the cost of living. Instead, President Trump and Republicans in Congress are poised to let health care premiums double for tens of millions of Americans.
Even one overdose death due to the substance use disorder epidemic is one too many. During Red Ribbon Week, it's important to recognize the people who work, day in and day out, to combat this crisis through prevention efforts and by promoting a drug-free lifestyle.
When I talk to Granite Staters from every corner of New Hampshire, they tell me that their basic necessities are too expensive. If Republicans in Congress fail to extend the Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits, this crisis is only going to get worse.
Ten years ago, a typical NH family could cover the basics and still save. Today, they’re falling behind with $17,349 less each year after paying for just a few essentials. A new NHFPI report breaks down how affordability has been eroded across the state: buff.ly/BlXRu2b #NewHampshire #NHPolitics
Let me get this straight: POTUS is spending $20 billion to bail out his friends in Argentina, but is willing to let 20 million Americans’ premiums double? Let’s get serious and put the American people’s best interests first.
We have the lowest number of uninsured Granite Staters ever in New Hampshire's history and the ACA enhanced premium tax credits have a lot to do with that. I recently met with folks in New Hampshire to discuss the urgent need to extend these credits.
With just under 2 weeks until open enrollment begins for health care coverage, the need to extend ACA enhanced premium tax credits is urgent.   I spoke to an expert in New Hampshire who explained what will happen if Congress fails to extend these tax credits before November 1. ⬇️
We’re in the midst of a cost of living crisis, and President Trump's tariffs are making products that families rely on even more expensive. The President said he was going to lower prices for Americans, but all we've seen are higher and higher costs from his reckless trade war.
I met with some health care advocates, providers and Granite Staters who use the ACA Marketplace for health insurance. They told me it will be devastating for New Hampshire if the ACA enhanced premium tax credits expire. They're counting on us to take action before it's too late.
Working Americans are already living paycheck to paycheck—they can't afford to spend an extra $2,000 per month on health care premiums. It's time for Republicans in Congress and the White House to join us to prevent this disaster for family budgets. www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
Who benefits from ACA enhanced premium tax credits? Tens of millions of Americans from coast to coast. If Congress doesn’t act soon, health care costs are going to surge for the folks who can least afford it.
Republican Insurance Commissioner Jon Godfread is right to sound the alarm: Congress only has a matter of days to extend ACA enhanced premium tax credits by November 1 before health care costs are permanently set higher. We must work across the aisle to get this done before then.
