It's the first day of Military Family Appreciation Month—a time when we honor the sacrifices military families make every day to support their loved ones serving at home and abroad. It's also up to us to ensure that military families have the support they need and deserve.
Americans elected Donald Trump in part because he vowed to lower the price of ‘everything’ – yet in the first quarter of Trump’s presidency, our GDP shrank, prices jumped and economists across the political spectrum are saying a recession is likely this year. apnews.com/article/econ...
As President Trump eyes opportunities to expand offshore drilling, I joined New England’s bipartisan delegation in introducing legislation to safeguard our coast from disastrous oil spills that cause economic and environmental devastation for our communities. thepulseofnh.com/hassan-shahe...
On the campaign trail, Trump promised to ‘immediately’ bring prices down, starting on day one. One hundred days in, it is painfully obvious that President Trump has done the exact opposite. My full statement below⬇️ www.shaheen.senate.gov/shaheen-trum...
The Women, Peace and Security program that Secretary Hegseth called “woke” and "weak” was passed by a Republican-led Congress and then signed into law by Trump in 2017. But don’t take it from me, Trump administration officials have been plenty vocal in their support for WPS:
Hegseth’s unlawful move to end the bipartisan Women, Peace and Security law weakens America’s global standing. It’s startling that just because the word ‘women’ is in the title, this evidence-based security program has been reduced to a DEI program.
Despite overwhelmingly positive feedback from taxpayers, this administration plans to dismantle the Direct File program. I'm urging the Treasury Secretary and Acting IRS Commissioner to protect and expand this tool that makes tax filing easier and free for millions of Americans.
CBS News has obtained a list of 365 federal grant programs halted this week by the Justice Department, disrupting programs to help victims of hate crime and sex trafficking, children who've suffered violence, and refugees. cbsn.ws/3GuD3CZ
President Trump's reckless trade war isn’t just raising costs for families — it is hurting our defense supply chains and harming our military readiness. Just this week, I visited a key defense manufacturer in NH that is already facing longer wait times and higher prices.
Let's be honest: Pete Hegseth was never qualified to lead the U.S. Department of Defense. The chaos the Secretary created at the Pentagon puts our service members and military readiness at risk. He's not the leader we need at this time.
Russian Foreign Minister Lavrov does a great job at talking a lot and saying nothing. Good to join Margaret Brennan on @facethenation.bsky.social to discuss how it's imperative for the U.S. to sustain pressure on Russia to secure a just and lasting peace for Ukraine.
Federally funded Head Start is vital to bringing affordable child care within reach for working families. Trump's mass firings of staff at Head Start and plans to completely eliminate the program are unacceptable. I joined my colleagues in demanding an end to this madness.
Since Day 1, the Trump admin has been attacking Head Start. This program provides pre-K & essential services for nearly 800,000 kids every year. But Trump is freezing funding, firing staff, & wants to eliminate it. I'm demanding Trump & RFK Jr. reverse these actions immediately.
NH Ball Bearings supports local jobs, contributes to our national defense and strengthens U.S. military readiness. I appreciated hearing from them this week about the higher costs and uncertainty they’re facing due to the Trump administration’s reckless trade war.
The YMCA of Greater Nashua’s Merrimack Branch is a terrific resource for Granite State families. It was great to visit today and discuss more ways to address New Hampshire's child care affordability crisis and provider shortage.
I led a discussion at NAMI in Concord to underscore the consequences of Trump’s reckless cuts to life-saving health services. I won't stand for federal funding cuts that make it harder for folks struggling with mental illness and substance use disorder to access services.
