Medicaid provides nearly 100,000 children in the Granite State with health care coverage.
House Republicans want to gut Medicaid with their budget and deny kids life-saving health care.
I've heard from small businesses across New Hampshire in the wake of Trump's reckless tariffs on Canada and Mexico.
The message is clear: they can't afford to absorb the cost of these tariffs, and it's going to have a real impact on our state and nation's economy.
Trump's funding cuts endanger programs and resources that help families put food on the table every day.
During National Nutrition Month, we must fight back against these reckless cuts that could exacerbate food insecurity in our communities.
My statement after voting to advance the continuing resolution to avoid a government shutdown that would have hurt Granite Staters and enabled President Trump and Elon Musk to do more harm:
The reality of DOGE’s indiscriminate firings is confusion and chaos for both federal workers and the farms, businesses and Granite Staters who rely on federal services.
It’s not negotiable: Women in this country deserve access to the full range of reproductive care and the right to make decisions about their bodies.
Trump’s tariff taxes are disastrous for businesses and Americans around the country. New Hampshire is going to be particularly hard-hit.
The last thing we need is higher gas prices and more expensive heating oil when families are already stretching their paycheck to cover costs.
In honor of #HarrietTubmanDay, I’m renewing my push to put Harriet Tubman, an American icon, on the $20 bill.
Women and girls, especially communities of color, deserve to see themselves represented and celebrated – and I won’t stop fighting until we see it through.
I'm glad that many of the planned tariffs on Canada and Mexico have been postponed, but businesses in our state still face uncertainty.
I visited American Calan Inc. to learn more about their work and how these tariffs are already impacting them.
Government funding runs out in 1 week and what are Republicans in Congress focused on?
Turning your tax dollars into Musk and Trump's slush fund.
Republicans must return to the negotiating table to avoid a shutdown and fully fund the government in a responsible, bipartisan way.
Access to quality, affordable child care is among the top concerns I hear about from Granite Staters, and we need to address this challenge head on.
That's why I'm working across the aisle to introduce comprehensive legislation that will increase supply and lower costs for families.
I'm introducing bipartisan legislation to help working families in rural areas maintain access to safe and affordable housing.
We have an opportunity to come together to get this done – and I’m encouraging both parties to do just that by advancing our commonsense bill.
The U.S. Department of Defense's decision to rescind a policy that allowed service members to more easily access reproductive care sends a message to service women that they are not as valuable as their male counterparts.

Some Congressional Republicans want you to believe that cutting Medicaid will save money. In reality, they plan to use those savings to pay for a billionaire tax break.
Medicaid cuts would be disastrous for New Hampshire where nearly half of all beneficiaries are children.
Nobody likes long waits at the doctor's office.
But we know if Republicans refuse to extend the Affordable Care Act tax credits, we will lose more than a quarter million jobs, hurting our hospitals, doctors and pharmacies.
Trump’s speech last night sounded more like reality TV than reality.
Fact: there aren’t millions of people over 100 years of age fraudulently claiming social security benefits.
The Air Traffic Control system needs comprehensive reform and investment, not a temporary fix.
My bipartisan legislation would expand the workforce pipeline, enhance training facilities and equipment, improve recruitment and retention efforts and more.
I’m disappointed but not surprised that Trump didn’t utter a single word about improving access to child care tonight.
If Trump really wanted to lower the cost of everything then ensuring access to quality, affordable child care would be a top priority.
Trump, the best thing you can do for U.S. shipbuilding is leave Portsmouth Naval Shipyard alone and stop messing with the workforce that keeps our country safe and strong.
