I spoke with my constituent Paul who, like tens of millions of other Americans, relies on Affordable Care Act enhanced premium tax credits to keep health care costs down. If Republicans continue blocking my legislation, their premiums will skyrocket and many will lose coverage.
It was great to have folks from the New Hampshire VFW stop by my Washington D.C. office this week. Thank you for everything you do to serve and advocate on behalf of the Granite State's military members and veterans.
September 11th, 2001, was a day of shock, sadness and tragedy that left no American untouched. We stand in solidarity to remember the nearly 3,000 lives that were lost and to honor the selfless and heroic efforts of our first responders on that day.
About half of those who enroll in ACA coverage to access affordable health care work at or own a small business. Failure to extend these tax credits will be a massive blow to the small businesses that create jobs and power local economies. Congress must act now.
Will it add to the seemingly growing pressure to make a deal and extend the enhanced ACA tax credits to learn that - half of all marketplace enrollees work for small businesses or are self employed?
As New Hampshire continues to face a shortage of health care professionals, training grounds like Saint Anselm College's new nursing center are all the more important. I was glad to secure federal funding for the project and to attend the ribbon-cutting on campus today.
We're making real progress in New Hampshire to reduce overdose deaths and save lives.   The Trump administration's cuts to funding that help us fight the spread of fentanyl and increase access to recovery and treatment programs are putting everything we've accomplished at risk.
Americans are now facing the highest unemployment rate since 2021 and the slowest non-COVID job growth since 2010. Working families are being squeezed by high prices on basic necessities and they're worried. President Trump needs to stop damaging our economy and end his trade war.
Americans will see the highest premiums in decades if Republicans don't help us extend Affordable Care Act tax credits. That means older Americans, working families, people in rural areas—those who can least afford it—will be priced out of health care coverage.
Families are already struggling with high costs, and allowing these tax credits to expire would make things much worse. My bill would permanently extend them and prevent costs from skyrocketing. Both sides know we need to act, and I hope Senate Republicans don’t stand in the way.
New: GOP Senate leader Thune keeps door open to extending expiring Obamacare tax credits Trump-linked pollsters are raising alarms that MAGA voters will punish Republicans in 2026 if premiums go up. Dems want the money extended in gov’t fund or another vehicle. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...
This National Recovery Month, I stand with the thousands of Granite State families whose lives have been touched by addiction and the courageous Granite Staters working to overcome it. I'll continue fighting in Congress to expand access to treatment and secure recovery resources.
Granite Staters are feeling the squeeze from President Trump's tariff taxes and they can't afford it. My legislation would rein in the president's inflationary policies, providing desperately needed relief. It's time for Republicans in Congress to stand up for working families.
While Granite Staters are struggling with rising utility bills, federal funding is ready to help families with energy efficient heat pumps, insulation and other retrofits that help lower their monthly bills. It's time to put these dollars to work for New Hampshire families.
As parents send their children back to school, prices on everything from lunches to essential supplies, like notebooks and pencils, are sky high thanks to Trump's tariffs. It's a budgeting disaster for families who are already feeling squeezed by the affordability crisis.
62 years ago today, Martin Luther King Jr.’s March on Washington marked a watershed moment in the civil rights movement and the fight to secure full equality under the law for all Americans. It's on all of us to uphold that promise and continue Dr. King’s work.
Child care isn't a luxury good, it's a basic necessity. High quality, affordable child care provides families with the stability and flexibility they need to thrive, but for too many families it remains out of reach.
I'm heartbroken by reports of the horrific violence at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis this morning and am grateful for our emergency first responders. It's back-to-school week. Parents, students and teachers should not have to fear gun violence in our classrooms.
