Equal pay for equal work is not controversial—it's common sense.
Yet, 62 years after the Equal Pay Act of 1963 was signed into law, women still make just 84 cents for every $1 a man earns. Proud to support the Paycheck Fairness Act which would help even the playing field.

While Americans struggle to keep up with high prices, the Republican budget will let ACA tax credits expire, causing 4.2 million Americans to go uninsured and millions more to face skyrocketing health care costs.
It’s cruel and it makes no economic sense.
On #GunViolenceAwarenessDay, we remember the countless lives needlessly lost to gun violence and renew our calls for common sense gun reform.
We know from experience in New Hampshire that making folks prove employment to access Medicaid doesn’t work.
By adding more red tape and bureaucracy, Republicans’ end goal is to kick people off their health insurance—and that’s exactly what will happen if their plan becomes law.
First, they took away a woman's right to make her own health care decisions.
Now, they've rescinded federal guidance that ensured state-level abortion bans wouldn't interfere with emergency, life-saving care for mothers.
It's despicable.
Commerce Secretary Lutnick was extremely dismissive of the real impact steel tariffs are having on businesses and our defense supply chain.
For one ball bearings business in New Hampshire, costs are up and their lead times have gone from 20 weeks to two and a half years due to these tariffs.
Trump's "Big Beautiful Bill" won't save money. Instead, it'll add $2.4 trillion to the national deficit.
What do Americans get in return?
Red tape and bureaucracy that'll cause more than 10 million folks to lose health care coverage. Billionaires win, everyday Americans lose.
CBO is out with its final cost estimate of the tax-and-spending bill passed by the House.
- Revenue ⬇️ by $3.7 trillion over 10 years
- Spending ⬇️ by $1.3 trillion
- Debt ⬆️ by $2.4 trillion over 10 years
- Uninsured pop. ⬆️ by 10.9 million in 2034

Job Corps is pivotal to giving young Granite Staters the knowledge, skills and abilities they need to land jobs. I'm disappointed to see Trump shuttering this tried and true training program that has helped young people and boosted New Hampshire’s economy.

While the Republican Party has turned their back on Granite State women, I'll never stop fighting to protect and preserve women's reproductive rights.
28 years ago today, as Governor, I repealed an outdated and dangerous law that criminalized abortion in New Hampshire.
The effort passed with bipartisan support—because leaders from both parties knew that these decisions should be made by women and families.
For decades, AmeriCorps members have put ideology aside to work for our communities and fill critical service gaps.
I heard from volunteers in the Granite State today, and Trump's shameful cuts to this bipartisan program would be devastating for the Granite Staters they serve.
Happy Pride Month, New Hampshire!
This month, we celebrate the LGBTQ+ community and renew the fight to advance justice and equality for all LGBTQ+ individuals everywhere.
I join all Granite Staters in extending my gratitude to all our service members and military families for their service and sacrifice.
This Memorial Day season, I'm joining the Navy Gold Star Program's "You've Been Ducked" initiative.
I brought the duck to the New Hampshire State Veterans Cemetery in Boscawen this morning and to the Memorial Walkway where my father and uncles are remembered for their service.
Under Trump's so-called "Big Beautiful Bill," more than 13 million Americans would lose health care coverage and food assistance programs would be slashed.
Bottom line: Billionaires win, working families lose.
It was an honor to be at the New Hampshire State Veterans Cemetery today for a Memorial Day ceremony paying tribute to the men and women who made the ultimate sacrifice defending our security and freedom.
Great to visit the Kilham Bear Center in Lyme to learn about their work to rescue and rehabilitate orphaned and injured black bear cubs.
New Hampshire’s wildlife and treasured outdoor spaces would benefit from my bill to protect and restore the Connecticut River Watershed.
It’s absurd that there’s currently no statute preventing special government employees like Elon Musk from using government information for personal gain after they've exited government service. I’m calling on President Trump to change that.
SBA district offices play a key role in supporting small business owners.
At her confirmation hearing, Administrator Loeffler committed to ensuring these offices have the staff they need to do their jobs. It's time to make good on that promise and fill the vacant positions in NH.
While the administration has appealed, it's imperative this ruling be upheld to bring relief to families and businesses. In the meantime, I'm calling on Congress to pass my Protecting Americans from Tax Hikes on Imported Goods Act.
