New Hampshire is no exception when it comes to the relentless attacks on abortion and reproductive health care since the fall of Roe v. Wade. Today, I joined advocates from Planned Parenthood New Hampshire Action Fund to highlight how this crisis is impacting women in the Granite State.
Helping families put food on the table shouldn't be a partisan issue. Republicans must stop playing political games with Dept. of Agriculture's WIC program.

Today, I met with Ambassador Gupta to discuss ongoing work at The Secretary's Office of Global Women's Issues, as well as their implementation of the Women, Peace and Security Strategy and National Action Plan. I look forward to continuing our work to advance women's rights and freedoms across the globe.
More than 1.6 million women in the military are of reproductive age and they all deserve the same no-copay contraception as their civilian counterparts.
Sen. Susan Collins and I wrote to President Biden to address this disparity and increase access to contraception for service members.
Upheaval caused by frequent relocations can be a challenge for military families—especially working spouses.
ICYMI: Joni Ernst and I are urging DoD to standardize leave without pay policies so that spouses who are federal civilians can more easily find new jobs after moves.
Thank you, John Kerry, for your steadfast leadership and dedication to combatting the climate crisis on a global scale.
It was great to join Secretary Pete Buttigieg and Sen. Maggie Hassan in Brentwood at the The Finishing Trades Institute of New England Richard Mauro Training Center. Thanks to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law these IUPAT DC #35 apprentices in training will have plenty of new infrastructure projects to work on!
