🚨The House Armed Services Committee PASSED our commonsense, bipartisan amendment to ensure our servicemembers have the right to repair their own equipment.

3 0

The Army, Navy, and Air Force agree: our military needs to be able to repair its equipment. During today's National Defense Authorization Act markup, I’m fighting to make sure our servicemembers have the tools they need to do just that.

I’m leading a bipartisan amendment to the NDAA that would protect the freedom and independence of journalists who report on the Pentagon. Pete Hegseth is at the helm of the least transparent Pentagon in American history. Congress can and must step up to protect our First Amendment. 🇺🇸

America needs a Director of National Intelligence with the experience and judgment to lead our intelligence community with competence and professionalism. That is NOT Bill Pulte. You deserve better.

19 3

🚨The U.S. House of Representatives PASSED our bipartisan Iran War Powers Resolution.

29 5

In 1993, America had 51 prime defense contractors. Just 7 years later, we were down to 5. The result? Higher costs and less innovation. This consolidation was blessed by the Pentagon itself. Time for Congress to rewrite the rules and level the playing field.

"Live the life you want.” I love that inspiring motto from the National Federation of the Blind of NH, and I was grateful to be part of your Annual State Convention. Thank you for leading the way — I’m so proud to be working alongside you. 🇺🇸

Hubbard Brook and Bartlett Experimental Forest have been mission-critical for the growth of our forest economy and the protection of our forests and lands. I’m working to ensure these national assets are protected from attempts to jettison their contributions to our way of life in NH.

This is no way to be running a country. You deserve better.

From downtown revitalization to critical healthcare services, Claremont is building momentum — transforming former industrial sites into new community assets and building for the future to strengthen the region’s health system.

Grateful to the students and teachers who hosted me at Mascoma Valley Regional High School. Proud that Audrey’s painting will represent NH in the halls of our U.S. Capitol. Thank you to every artist who participated in our Congressional Art Competition this year — you are our future! 🇺🇸

🚨A judge paused President Trump’s corrupt slush fund. We won’t quit in this fight in Congress and in the courts.

Incredible visit to Claremont yesterday. This is what fighting for the Granite State looks like: bringing back every federal dollar I can to help our beautiful communities grow and thrive.

I was grateful to join members of the New Hampshire chapter of No Labels in Concord for a thoughtful conversation about bipartisan problem-solving, fiscal responsibility, government transparency, and the challenges facing our country.

I had the honor spending time with WWII Navy veteran Tony Guarino to talk about his military service. Tony represents the very best of New Hampshire’s Greatest Generation — courage, patriotism, humility, and service above self. 🇺🇸

I hope you all had a meaningful Memorial Day weekend honoring the brave Americans who made the ultimate sacrifice for our country and our freedom.

9 3

Today, we honor the women and men who loved America enough to give their lives for our country and each and every one of us. May God Bless our fallen heroes, our servicemembers, our veterans, and our military families. We will never forget you. 🇺🇸

When disaster strikes, federal disaster loans keep small business in business and family farmers afloat. We must protect and strengthen those lifelines. Proud to see our bill pass unanimously in the Small Business Committee this week, and I won’t quit until we get it done.

13 5

Today, 65% of American households are priced out of a median-priced home. We must build more homes in America — and fast. To succeed in that mission, we’ve got to lower the cost of building — including by cutting red tape that is jacking up building costs in New Hampshire and across America.

11 5

Today, I had the honor of welcoming some of NH’s newest citizens as my fellow Americans. 🇺🇸 Every person who chooses to become an American renews this extraordinary experiment in self-government and keeps our country forever young. Thank you for choosing America. Thank you for choosing NH.

21 5

Before sunrise, I was honored to join veterans, Gold Star families, and servicemembers for the annual Wear Blue: Run to Remember and bipartisan washing of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial wall. May the legacies of America’s fallen heroes live on in our hearts and in the generations to come. 🇺🇸

Consolidation and anticompetitive abuses are devastating for New Hampshire small businesses. As a former federal antitrust enforcer, I know how to fight back. Capitalism without competition is not capitalism—it’s exploitation.

7 1

🚨The Pentagon is asking for another $1,500,000,000,000 in taxpayer dollars. The Air Force is asking for $338,800,000,000 — a $92,500,000,000 budget increase. These are big numbers, but they will never become abstractions to me. Public trust depends on clean audits.

25 11

President Trump's war of choice in Iran is bankrolling Vladimir Putin and his regime. This is dead wrong and downright dangerous.

11 4

Great to be with the Pelham Fire Department! Our firefighters and first responders put their lives on the line every day to keep our communities safe. They represent the best of America and deserve our full support.

Gearing up for another week in the People’s House! Thank you to all the Granite Staters who’ve visited—the best ideas I get in this job come from YOU.

7 1

This is not a moment to be silent. This is a moment to speak up. 🇺🇸

25 8

🚨The Army agrees: our WARRIOR Act will make America’s military stronger and our country safer by ensuring that our servicemembers are judged on the merits — not their gender.

13 4

It’s past time for the United States Army to pass a clean audit. Public trust and our military readiness depend on it.

17 7

The women and men of America’s public shipyards are mission-critical for our national security. These patriots have some of the toughest and most important jobs. We should be doing everything we can to retain talent, remove unnecessary barriers, and provide stability—not create new obstacles.

🚨Good news: the House just passed our bipartisan amendment to deliver robust funding for improvements to VA direct care for New Hampshire veterans, including funding for upgrades to our Manchester VA Medical Center. This amendment is about keeping our promise to those who served.

27 4

Monopolies and corporate abuses of power in our defense sector have undermined America’s military readiness and been a prolific driver of waste, fraud, and abuse. Proud to be part of the bipartisan effort to enshrine the right to repair in federal law. Today, I secured the Navy’s commitment⬇️

11 4

This National Police Week, we honor the brave women and men in uniform who serve and protect our communities by upholding the rule of law and putting their lives on the line to keep us safe.

Unions deserve a fair shot at a first contract — not endless delay tactics designed to run out the clock. In NH, nurses voted to form the state’s first union at a private hospital — but still don’t have a contract. That’s why I’m working to pass our bipartisan Faster Labor Contracts Act.

24 9

Here’s what President Trump’s unconstitutional warmaking has accomplished: inflation is accelerating, paychecks aren’t keeping up, and costs are skyrocketing — from gas to groceries to housing to healthcare. You deserve better.

7 5

There is no binding code of conduct and ethics that is independently enforceable against Justices of the United States Supreme Court. That is dead wrong — and I’m working to do something about it in Congress.

70 16

Honored to be with our next generation of leaders at New Hampshire Military Service Academy Day in Concord over the weekend. To those answering the call: America needs you. Thank you for considering how you can serve our state and our country at one of our service academies.🇺🇸

New Hampshire’s small businesses are the beating heart of our economy. This National Small Business week, I’m so proud to serve you and bring your voices to my work in Congress today and in the days ahead. 🇺🇸

Our North Country never quits. It gets to work. That’s what I saw at the Androscoggin Valley Chamber of Commerce dinner — a room full of builders, problem-solvers, patriots who love this place fiercely, and neighbors who show up for one another. 🇺🇸

Honored to join a room full of freedom-loving, patriotic women in Windham yesterday to celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Salem Area Women's Club. Here’s to the another century of good work, goodwill, and being a power of good! 🇺🇸

President Trump’s wars — from his trades wars to his war of choice in Iran — are making life more uncertain and expensive every day. I spoke with Adam Sexton about what I’m hearing from hardworking people across our state: enough with the costly chaos and uncertainty. 👇

Art has always been how our democracy tells the truth. Congrats to Audrey Webber of Mascoma Valley Regional High School for representing us in our Capitol with your extraordinary painting “Dusk Over Cardigan” that will represent New Hampshire’s 2nd District in Washington. 🇺🇸🎨

Class of 2026: America needs you. The story of this country is not a finished book sitting on any shelf — it's a living experiment, and the pen is in your hands. 🇺🇸

17 5

At the Farm, Forest & Garden Expo in Deerfield—celebrating 250 years of New Hampshire family farmers and foresters. You are the stewards of our land. Keepers of our character. Engines of our economy. I will never stop fighting for you. 🇺🇸

As a Congresswoman, my job is to ask the hard questions and deliver the accountability that the American people deserve.

23 8

After hours of shameless stonewalling and sketchy dodges, Secretary Hegseth finally answered an important question.

27 12

Gas prices have reached record highs, but Mr. Hegseth cannot answer the most basic questions about how much his war of choice in Iran is costing hardworking Americans at the gas pump. He has no business serving as our Secretary of Defense.

27 11

Secretary Hegseth testified that he will be accountable for every American taxpayer dollar that the Pentagon spends, so I asked for a simple breakdown of the billions of dollars he has already spent in President Trump’s war of choice in Iran. He had no answer. Make that make sense.

18 9

Highlight of the King’s address to Congress today was the standing O for the cornerstone constitutional truth that executive power is subject to checks and balances. That’s an idea worth fighting for today and every day. 🇺🇸

28 7

President Trump is asking Congress for another $1.5 trillion for a department that has chronically failed to pass a clean audit. That is not good government and you deserve better.

10 6

🚨Good news: the House passed our bipartisan bill — the SEED Act. These educators deserve the same tax deduction other teachers get, and our commonsense, bipartisan bill will make that happen. Time to right this wrong and get our bill signed into law.

18 8

Brain health is a core medical issue, a core workforce issue, a moral issue—and at bottom, it’s a national security issue.

6 1

Finally, Secretary Hegseth will come before the House Armed Services Committee this week. It is time to answer for this war of choice.

27 8

Tens of thousands of hardworking Granite Staters rely on Liberty Utilities. So why is this monopoly jacking up costs for New Hampshire? I convened businesses, concerned citizens, and local leaders in Franklin to get answers and solutions from Liberty — I won’t quit until we get both.

8 2

President Trump must answer this most basic and mission-critical question: how does this end well for the American people? He’s created a global energy crisis and hardworking Americans are feeling acutely the pain of this war of choice at the gas pump, the grocery store, and beyond.

9 3

You deserve better.

17 5

From our lakes and rivers to the White Mountains, New Hampshire’s beauty is worth protecting. On Earth Day and every day, I’m fighting to keep our air clean, our water safe, and our future strong—for the next generation.

22 5

It’s time to clean house in the People’s House. And I’m determined to get it done.

19 3

Thank you, City Year New Hampshire, for an inspiring and powerful evening celebrating service, leadership, and the power of showing up for New Hampshire’s students. Grateful to honor Dick and Barbara Couch and to stand with the Student Success Coaches who are changing lives every day.

4 1

The United States Postal Service is a promise to the American people—and you deliver on it every single day. I will never quit fighting alongside you to tackle any challenge and protect and defend the United States Postal Service. 🇺🇸

23 6

Every Member of Congress should be forced to vote every day on President Trump’s war of choice in Iran as long as it continues.

22 13

Another busy week at the People’s House! Thank you to all the Granite Staters that took the time to meet with me and our team. Your voices and advocacy guide my work every day. 🇺🇸

7 1

It is after midnight, and the Speaker of the House just released a new bill that would reauthorize our intelligence community to conduct warrantless surveillance under Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act for the next 5 years. This is no way to govern. You deserve better.

68 34

Congress must clean house and earn the trust of the American people. That starts with one simple principle: do your duty under our Constitution.

22 5

President Trump’s Big Brutal Bill, unconstitutional tariffs, and costly wars of choice are failing America’s small businesses and costing every American big time.

15 3

No Member of Congress should be paid while hardworking federal public servants are working without pay. Time for the Speaker to listen to our bipartisan coalition and give our Withhold Member Pay During Shutdowns Act a vote on the floor. Accountability starts with us.

33 8

Our freedom depends upon our commitment to our Constitution and the rule of law. Today, America’s system of checks and balances is being tested in ways we have never seen before.

15 5

There is no boot camp like the Nashua Community College Microelectronics Boot Camp. Congratulations to all the graduates, and thank you for letting me be a part of this week’s graduation. I look forward to seeing everything you’re going to do for Nashua, for our state, and for our country!
