Today, I joined advocates and educators at the Building Safe Communities conference at Plymouth State University. It's a stark reality that 1 in 3 women will experience domestic violence in their lifetime, and I'll continue working to ensure survivors have the resources and support they need.
I'm pleased to see the Senate unanimously passed my bipartisan resolution with Senator Grassley recognizing April as Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month. I'll continue working to spread awareness and provide survivors with the resources and support they need to heal.
While Trump cuts public health programs and research funding, #BlackMaternalHealthWeek is a stark reminder that Black moms remain 3x more likely than white moms to die from pregnancy complications. We should be confronting this reality, not gutting the organizations that do so.
Two major tax policies are set to expire this year.   One makes health care accessible for millions of everyday Americans and lowers the cost of life saving care. The other gives a tax break to billionaires.    Guess which one Donald Trump is fighting to save.
Let's be clear: Trump's tariffs are still in effect, and he doesn't care if they cause a recession that would risk millions of Americans losing their jobs. That might not mean much for Trump and his billionaire friends, but for working families, a recession would be devastating.
President Donald Trump was aware the economy could enter a recession, but wanted to avoid a depression, from his tariffs, according to a Wall Street Journal report.
The Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit is a proven and effective tool for bringing quality, affordable child care within reach for more families. It’s long past time we expand this tax credit—it’s the right thing to do for workers, families and our nation’s economy.
The Trump administration’s decision to fire needed immigration judges is jeopardizing the U.S. immigration courts’ ability to address a huge backlog of cases. I joined my colleagues in demanding answers from the U.S. Department of Justice.
The American people want a streamlined, humane immigration system. Gutting immigration courts and firing immigration judges only makes matters worse.
Today marks 1 year since the first national PFAS drinking water standards were established. Too many Granite State families and communities have been impacted by PFAS contamination. I’ll keep working to support research and clean up efforts while holding polluters accountable.
While Republicans are working to pass tax breaks for billionaires, Democrats are working to pass tax cuts for families and workers. Our legislation would expand the transformational Child Tax Credit for families and the Earned Income Tax Credit for workers.
In the richest country in the world, child poverty is a moral obscenity. The expanded #ChildTaxCredit would change the lives of millions of American children for the better. Today, Democrats demonstrated that we are fighting for families in every corner of our country.
I'm introducing legislation to prohibit Special Government Employees like Elon Musk from raking in federal dollars in government contracts at the expense of taxpayers. Those who step up to serve the public should not stand to benefit in private. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...
Trump’s short-sighted tariffs are a tax hike on American families—jacking up the price of gas, groceries, electronics, cars and everything in between. I joined my colleagues in introducing a resolution to force the administration to reverse course before it does irreparable harm.
The Trump Administration's decision to indiscriminately fire staff at the Office of Head Start and the Office of Child Care will harm child care assistance programs’ ability to serve working families. We're pushing back.
In the middle of Sexual Assault Awareness and Prevention Month, firings at the CDC by the Trump administration could jeopardize critical efforts to prevent sexual violence. Leaving educators at rape crisis centers in NH and across the U.S. in the dark does nothing to make our communities safer.
I was pleased to join folks in Manchester who are willing to speak out about the harm that will come if President Trump fires thousands of Veterans Affairs employees.      Crippling the Department won't make services better, it’ll make it harder for veterans to access the care they deserve.
For every $1 white, non-Hispanic men earn, Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander women earn 83¢. On #AANHPIEqualPay Day, we recommit to closing the wage gap so that we can achieve a society where everyone can thrive.
Trump promised to lower energy prices for Americans. Instead, his energy secretary is creating a clean energy “hit list.” Fact: Investing in clean energy sources is the best way to increase supply and bring costs down.
Trump’s tariff tax hike is a disaster for working class Granite Staters and will leave less money in your pocket. We just tried to pass an amendment to the Republican budget resolution that would end Trump's inflationary tariffs. Senate Republicans blocked it.
