In the 14 years since the ill-conceived Citizens United case, U.S. elections have been subject to an onslaught of dark money and special interest groups.

The voices and concerns of American families should never be drowned out by those who have the money to shout louder.

As we grapple with extreme restrictions on reproductive care, health care providers across the nation are sounding the alarm against limiting access to safe, effective medication abortion.

Here’s what one New Hampshire OBGYN had to say about what these bans mean for women:

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.

Service women sacrifice so much for our nation— it’s our duty to ensure they can access the best mental health care.

My bipartisan MOMS Act would establish perinatal mental health prevention programs and ensure service women get the support they need.⬇️

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.

We need to provide increased funding for WIC so that hungry moms and babies can have enough healthy food to eat. nytimes.com/2024/01/10/us/…

Without Roe, the fundamental right of reproductive health care for this and future generations is frighteningly uncertain.

This Granite Stater was crystal clear: a woman’s bodily autonomy does not belong in the hands of lawmakers.

Our adversaries want the United States to fall short in standing up for our allies. They want us to be divided. We need to show them that we are united.

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.

Ahead of the anniversary of the Roe decision, I’m joining Senate Democrats and three incredible guest panelists for an Abortion Rights Briefing to make clear the cruel realities of Republicans' crusade against reproductive rights.

A step in the right direction.

If we can get this done, the expanded Child Tax Credit would help millions keep more of their hard-earned money in their pockets while lifting 500,000 children out of poverty. And the housing incentives could build homes for 200,000 families.

Understanding the health impacts of PFAS is crucial to developing effective policy— that’s why I fought so hard to establish this study. I'm grateful to the participants and am eager to see further results so we can continue to support those impacted by PFAS in our communities.

From the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law to the Inflation Reduction Act, we’ve made historic investments in energy efficiency and clean energy. As we kick off 2024, I’m working to continue lowering costs for Granite State families and protect our environment.

The decades-in-the-making Derry-Londonderry Exit 4A Project will be critical to reducing traffic congestion and boosting local economies in these communities. I’m glad funds from the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law are finally making this project a reality.

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!
