Juneteenth is one of the most consequential days in our nation’s history.   I was honored to attend the Black Heritage Trail of NH’s Juneteenth Celebration to commemorate those who fought against the horror of slavery and recommit ourselves to the continual fight to foster a more equal nation.

On this day 43 years ago, Dr. Sally Ride inspired millions when she became the first American woman to go to space. Her legacy lives on four decades later as young women follow in her footsteps to pursue careers in STEM and achieve new breakthroughs in the field.

An overwhelming majority of Americans agree: We must cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month. With 26 bipartisan cosponsors and counting, we have the support needed to pass my INSULIN Act in the Senate and lower health care costs for millions. Let’s get this done.

From housing to health care to gas, Granite Staters have seen their costs go up by nearly $4,000 since President Trump took office. Americans across the country have made clear that affordability is their top concern—yet the President couldn’t care less.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.gov4d ago(source)
As one NH business owner put it, “[the cost of] everything is going up.” From implementing reckless tariffs to spiking fuel prices, President Trump’s policies are squeezing our state’s seafood industry—hurting fisherman and small business owners across the state. www.wmur.com/article/new-...
NH seafood businesses absorb rising costs as prices continue to climb
Seafood shop owners say they're facing rising costs for their products, as customers continue to feel the pressure of price hikes across other food categories.

Millions of Americans struggle to pay for the insulin they need daily to survive. By capping monthly insulin costs at just $35, my INSULIN Act would change that. With 26 bipartisan cosponsors, we have the votes needed to pass this bill through the Senate. Let's get it done.

From enhancing recreation opportunities to revitalizing infrastructure to increasing access to child care, NBRC funding is vital. It was great to see over $9 million in NBRC funding released to support our Granite State rural communities. newhampshirebulletin.com/briefs/over-...
Over $9M in federal grants awarded to northern NH businesses for childcare, infrastructure • New Hampshire Bulletin
U.S. Sen. Jeanne Shaheen and the New Hampshire congressional delegation announced that 21 grantees received $9.3 million in federal funding from the Northern Border Regional Commission.

In the United States, no family should have to choose between affording lifesaving insulin medication and paying their bills. By capping insulin at $35 a month, my INSULIN Act would work to ensure no American ever has to make such a decision. www.foxnews.com/opinion/sen-...
SEN JEAN SHAHEEN: One immediate way Congress can ease families' insulin costs
Bipartisan INSULIN Act would cap monthly insulin costs at $35 for Americans with employer-sponsored insurance, extending Medicare protections.

At Pulse Nightclub 10 years ago, 49 lives were taken from us and dozens more were injured in a tragic, hate-fueled act of mass violence. Today, we honor those who were lost and reaffirm our commitment and continued fight against homophobia, hate and bigotry.

78 years ago, the Women’s Armed Services Integration Act allowed women to serve as permanent members of the Army, Navy, Marine Corps and Air Force. With Secretary Hegseth intent on diminishing the role of women in our military, I am committed to fighting back and honoring their service.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJun 12(source)
We have 13 Republicans and 13 Democrats supporting my legislation to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month. Democrats, Republicans and Americans across the country agree: insulin has become far too expensive. Let's get this bill passed.

No one should have to choose between paying for groceries or their life-saving medication—yet, for those managing diabetes this is all too common. My INSULIN Act would cap insulin at just $35 a month, ensuring everyone can afford the insulin they need. www.indianapolispost.com/news/2790986...
Legislators mull reducing insulin costs for diabetics
About 700,000 Indiana adults have been diagnosed with diabetes, and an estimated 45,000 new adult diagnoses occur each year, according to the American Diabetes Association....
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJun 11(source)
Our President started a war with Iran and openly admits he doesn’t care about the financial concerns of Americans—but Americans are paying a steep price. The President was elected to address the affordability crisis, but he’s only made it worse.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJun 10(source)
It’s been 63 years since the Equal Pay Act was signed into law, yet women are still being paid less than men, earning just 81 cents for every $1 earned by a man. Equal pay for equal work shouldn’t be controversial, and I’ll keep fighting to ensure it is achieved.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJun 9(source)
An overwhelming majority of Americans agree: we must cap insulin costs. My INSULIN Act would do just that. Proud to add 6 new, bipartisan supporters to this bill. With 24 Senators signed onto this legislation and counting, momentum continues to build. Let's get it done.
U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen@shaheen.senate.govJun 9(source)
Our bipartisan INSULIN Act that would cap monthly insulin costs at $35 has the support of 22 senators, equally divided between both parties. It continues to pick up momentum because no one should go broke trying to access lifesaving medicine.
