As housing costs rise, we must take steps now to ensure future generations have safe, affordable places to live. I was proud to secure three provisions in landmark legislation that passed the Senate to support affordable housing in communities across New Hampshire.
Too often women’s health and wellbeing are an afterthought. During National Women’s Health Week, we must fight back against efforts to limit reproductive care so that women have access to the full scope of health care at every stage of life.
40 million Americans have diabetes, and we must do more to ensure that everyone can afford the lifesaving medication they need. By capping monthly out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35, my bipartisan INSULIN Act would do just that.
As New Hampshire businesses struggle with rising costs due to the President's tariffs and war in Iran, I was glad to visit W.H. Bagshaw to learn more about how I can continue supporting our Granite State small business owners.
President Trump has done nothing to lower costs for my constituents. That's unacceptable, and why I've traveled across NH on my Affordability Action Tour—to hear directly from folks about what I can do to address their concerns. Check out where I've been so far:
New Hampshire is facing a shortage of nursing professionals, especially in the most rural parts of the state. It was great to see firsthand how funding I helped the New England College secure is supporting a revamped program that is getting more nurses out in the field.
Local small businesses are the backbone of our Granite State economy. It was wonderful to mark Small Business Week by recognizing the accomplishments of so many business owners across our state. Congratulations to all the winners at this year’s Small Business Week Awards.
The work Nashua Community College does to equip Granite State students with the skills they need to excel is critical for our local economies. This week, I saw firsthand how federal funding I secured is being used to bolster the college’s high-demand jobs training programs.
May is Jewish American Heritage Month, which provides us with an important opportunity to recognize the contributions of Jewish Americans to communities across the country. It’s also a time when we can redouble our efforts to combat antisemitism and hate around the world.
Health care prices are rising across the board. Yesterday, I spoke with Elise, a Granite State student with Type 1 diabetes about my INSULIN Act and what it would mean to cap out-of-pocket insulin costs to $35 a month.
The cost of housing has skyrocketed in the Granite State, making it harder for families to find a home they can afford. I visited the Villages at Craft Hill, which is a great example of the type of solutions we need to increase access to affordable housing in rural New Hampshire.
With energy prices spiking as a direct result of the President’s war in Iran, it was great to visit Brayton Energy in Hampton to see firsthand how their innovative clean technologies can fight climate change, expand our energy supply and lower costs.
Diabetes often is the most expensive chronic condition—I’m hoping to change that. My bipartisan INSULIN Act would cap monthly out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35, ensuring families across the country can afford the lifesaving medication they need.
I had the pleasure of visiting St. Anselm’s state-of-the-art nursing simulation lab, where they're equipping future nurses with the skills needed to enter the workforce. On National Nurses Day, join me in appreciating all that nurses do for communities across the country.
Lifesaving insulin has become far too expensive. By capping monthly out-of-pocket insulin costs at $35, my INSULIN Act would change that. It was great to host a roundtable today at St. Anselm to discuss high insulin costs and my bill. Let's get it passed.
