Let’s be crystal clear about what is happening: Donald Trump is literally paying for bullets and bombs for war abroad by cutting health care for Americans here at home.

NH food pantries are essential—serving as a reliable source of nutrition for Granite Staters struggling with high costs. President Trump's decision to cut SNAP benefits is having a real impact on these organizations and on hardworking families already struggling to afford groceries.

First, he tweeted "RIP CFPB," the agency responsible for policing consumer financial products. Then he announced X Money, which is part of his plan to turn X into "the biggest financial institution in the world.”

Americans shouldn’t have to choose between their medicine and their groceries. Trump promised to lower drug costs. He took away people’s health care instead.

The best part of my job is meeting with Vermonters from all walks of life. They come from different backgrounds. They have different hopes and dreams. But like me—they love this state and want to see it thrive.

As energy bills soar, Trump is forcing families to pay for overpriced, dirty fossil fuel power. My No Bailouts on Your Power Bill Act will stop Trump’s abuse of energy emergency authority for his pet pollution projects that add millions to household bills and sicken communities.

Thousands of Haitians have been living & working in America legally for years, after fleeing violence in Haiti. Stripping away their Temporary Protected Status would send them back into harm’s way. The House has acted — now the Senate must follow suit. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

I sent a classified letter to House and Senate colleagues about a secret interpretation of surveillance law that every American should be concerned about. Representative Massie is right. The Constitution requires EVERY member to vote against a clean reauthorization.

A long-term ceasefire, coupled with serious commitments and steps from the Lebanese government to disarm Hezbollah, could lead to security and stability in both countries and the conditions for regional peace in the Middle East.
- JR
I urge Israel and Lebanon to continue negotiations following the first direct talks between the two sides in 30 years earlier this week.

For years, Hezbollah, a dangerous Iranian terror proxy, has threatened Israel and Lebanon. I am hopeful by the news of a temporary ceasefire agreement between Israel and Lebanon.🧵

Trump's Budget Director admitted it: Trump & Republicans CHOSE to give big PERMANENT tax cuts to the rich, while the much smaller cuts for working Americans EXPIRE in 2 years. Their priorities are clear. We need a tax code that works for working people, not the super-rich.

Today, I joined Senator Wicker, Senator Shaheen, and a bipartisan group of Senators to host Ukrainian Prime Minister Yuliia Svyrydenko in the Capitol. In our meeting, I told her I stand with Ukraine and that Congress and President Trump must also play their parts to end Putin’s bloody war.

Yes, your grocery prices are up—by about $310 since 2024. Trump’s war with Iran is raising costs, AND food prices are still out of control. But Trump has done nothing to stop them. That’s why I’m calling on his admin to crack down on price fixing now.

$205. That’s the added cost New Hampshire families paid to heat their homes in March thanks to the President's war in Iran. I’m fighting to lower costs for my constituents, but our President’s actions are doing just the opposite.

If you were outraged when Trump tried to silence Jimmy Kimmel, you should be outraged by what they're doing to students who spoke out against the war in Gaza. Now they're firing immigration "judges" who refuse to go along with their illegal scheme. Defend free speech! ⬇️

The Pope criticized Trump’s war in Iran and now Trump is cutting funding from Catholic charities helping homeless kids. Not a coincidence. Just retaliation. He doesn’t care who gets hurt.

Between tariffs and the administration’s war with Iran, costs are rising across the board. It’s rippling through our economy and hurting families, small businesses, and farmers.

I don't believe that Donald Trump believes in much of anything. I don’t believe he has a moral core. In fact, I believe he holds people of faith in contempt. Religion for him is just one more tool in his toolbox to divide us in order to dominate us.

Seattle is literally breaking records for the price of diesel thanks to Trump's war of choice. This is hitting our supply chains—and you're going to see the difference at the grocery store. I'll keep voting to end this senseless war again and again.

Regime change? Not really. Iranian navy destroyed? No. All nuclear capabilities ended? Also no. We’ve spent billions on a war that’s taken American lives and achieved none of its goals.

I hope he sees for himself the high gas prices squeezing Nevadans at the pump and finally outlines a concrete plan to bring down costs—but I'm not holding my breath.

As Donald Trump visits Las Vegas today, Nevadans are paying the highest gas prices in four years and stretching their budgets to the limit just so they can afford their daily commute.

Trump's illegal war with Iran is costing U.S. taxpayers BILLIONS, has left 13 U.S. servicemembers dead, killed thousands, weakened U.S. credibility, and is forcing prices here at home to skyrocket — and Senate Republicans are doing nothing to stop it. Spineless.
