New England sports fan, mom, crossword enthusiast, former governor, U.S. Senator for New Hampshire.
America’s long-held partnership with Canada makes us stronger. The uncertainty and damage that President Trump’s reckless tariffs have caused is bad for our economy and our security. I spoke to @WMUR9 about my trip to Canada, where I met with Canadian officials.
Canada is New Hampshire’s most important trading partner. I joined a bipartisan Congressional Delegation to Canada to discuss the need to rebuild our trade partnership amid the uncertainty caused by President Trump’s reckless tariffs that raise prices for Granite Staters.

First responders put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe, and we need to ensure they are protected when answering the call to help others. That’s why I recently introduced a bipartisan bill that increases penalties for crimes against first responders.
The budget bill passed by Congressional Republicans is already forcing rural health care providers like Ammonoosuc Community Health Services' Franconia location to close. This is only the beginning of the ways in which this bill will hurt our communities wmur.com/article/franco…
Early this morning the Senate voted – over bipartisan opposition – to take funding away from public broadcasting, which provides crucial information like emergency alerts to American households. These cuts put families, especially those living in rural areas, in danger.
Today marks 3 years since the launch of the 988 suicide prevention hotline. 988 is a critical resource available 24/7 to connect callers with support & I'm concerned by the Administration's plan to remove LGBTQ services – help must be available to anyone who wants it.
I asked a Trump Administration health nominee a simple question: do you agree that all women should have access to free cancer screening in their own community? He refused to answer.
NEW: The Wage and Hour Division office in Manchester will remain open after I pushed the Trump Administration to reverse its planned closure. This office delivers for New Hampshire workers by recovering unpaid wages they have earned. unionleader.com/news/politics/…
Congratulations to Derry native Liam Doyle on being drafted in the first round of the MLB draft! New Hampshire will be cheering you on -- except against the Sox of course! bostonglobe.com/2025/07/13/spo…
Opportunity Networks in Amherst provides support for Granite Staters with disabilities – services that are now at risk because of the Republican budget law. Organizations like Opportunity Networks provide critical services to Granite Staters and should be protected.

The Republican budget bill will raise costs across the health care system – even if you already have health insurance. I stopped by Waypoint in Manchester last week to hear more about how this bill will affect Granite Staters trying to get health care.
Sen. Maggie Hassan said the budget package's cuts to Medicaid will ripple throughout the healthcare system, including rural hospitals and organizations that help with the state's fentanyl crisis. nhpr.org/nh-news/2025-0…
I'm encouraged that the VA has listened to my and my colleagues’ concerns about the planned mass layoffs at the VA. I will continue to push back against any attempts to weaken the VA and dismantle the critical services that NH veterans have earned. usatoday.com/story/news/pol…
Let’s be clear: the Republican budget bill rips away health care and clean energy from people just to give tax breaks to billionaires
The recently passed Republican budget bill will have devastating impacts on New Hampshire. I visited Waypoint this morning and heard more about how these cuts will harm health care for Granite Staters.

My thoughts are with everyone impacted by the floods in Texas, including those who have lost loved ones or who are still searching. New Hampshire stands with you during this horrible time. Thank you to the first responders who have continued to risk their own lives to save…
I was honored to attend the naturalization ceremony at Strawbery Banke this weekend and welcome new American citizens. unionleader.com/news/human_int…
In case you missed it, I launched an investigation into GSK’s decision to discontinue the most prescribed inhaler for young children. Big Pharma cannot abuse the system to enrich their profit margins and rip off taxpayers. Read more from STAT News:
