I joined the New Hampshire Congressional delegation at Waypoint to highlight what the Republican megabill will mean for our state. At a time when costs are already up, this bill takes health care and food assistance away from Granite Staters.
The "Big Beautiful Bill" is a big betrayal of the American people.   When President Trump signed this legislation into law, he signed away health care for millions of families, food assistance and energy programs that lower utility bills all to give more money to the wealthiest Americans.
Republicans just passed a megabill that will make life more unaffordable for Americans. That's on top of Trump's tariffs that are raising costs for families by $2,000 a year. This administration's priorities are clear: Punish families to help billionaires line their pockets.
My heart goes out to all those impacted by the horrific floods in Texas this weekend, and to the loved ones of those who lost their lives. I extend my sincere gratitude to the first responders working around the clock to save lives amid ongoing rescue and recovery efforts.
I'm extremely alarmed that President Trump's proposed budget would eliminate federal funding for New Hampshire's cancer registry. In order to "Make America Healthy Again," we need to know where and when patterns of illness arise so we can tackle them head on.
The Republican megabill will take health care coverage away from tens of thousands of Granite Staters just to give billionaires a few extra bucks. I visited Monadnock Family Services to speak with local caregivers and families about what the impact of these cuts would be in NH.
As Ukraine is pummeled by Russian drones, this is the worst time to be cutting back on the weapons they need to defend themselves—which were already on the way when they were halted. Secretary Hegseth and Under Secretary Colby clearly don't understand the impact of this war on US national security.
After a positive meeting between President Trump and President Zelensky at the NATO Summit, it's distressing to see that Secretary Hegseth and Under Secretary Colby decided to halt weapons shipments to Ukraine. This sends the wrong message not only to our allies but to our adversaries.
46,000 That's how many Granite Staters lose health care coverage under the bill Senate Republicans voted for. They're making the largest cut to health care in American history to give more money to billionaires.
I'm deeply disappointed that my Republican colleagues passed a bill that will rip health care and food assistance away from millions of Americans while also increasing energy costs for millions more so that Trump can cut taxes for the ultra wealthy.
At a moment when Americans are feeling squeezed by high prices, we should be making every effort to lower costs. The Republican "Big Beautiful Bill" will line the pockets of the ultra rich by increasing energy bills and taking health care and food assistance away from families.
Overnight, nearly all Republicans blocked my amendment to preserve tax credits that lower energy costs for families, make housing more affordable and help give businesses needed certainty. Energy and home prices are already too high. Trump's bill will make them even higher.
While Republicans jam through a disastrous budget bill that punishes working families to give handouts to the ultra-wealthy, I'm offering an amendment to save tax breaks that make energy and housing more affordable for Granite Staters. I'm calling on my colleagues to vote YES.
The so-called Republican “Big Beautiful Bill” would be the largest transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich in a single bill in history. It takes away health care and food from working families and raises household energy costs, all to give more money to billionaires.
I've met with health care leaders in NH's rural communities who are worried about their ability to deliver lifesaving services—and that was before Trump's proposed cuts. This megabill would devastate rural hospitals and make accessing care even harder for rural Granite Staters.
I’ve heard from countless Granite Staters who are deeply anxious about what the Republican megabill would mean for them and their families.     They are real people, and this bill is not just words on a page – it is a direct attack on their health and economic security.
From milk to cheese to ice cream, New Hampshire's dairy farmers play a vital role in our food system and state economy. As National Dairy Month comes to a close, I'll keep working to find ways to support the small dairy producers that make the Granite State unique.
President Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill” is a big betrayal of the American people.       There's nothing beautiful about taking away health care and food from working families to give more money to billionaires.
