In recent years, the Federal Government has wasted millions of dollars maintaining empty bank accounts that serve no purpose. Last year, the Government Accountability Office found that the government was spending more than $170,000…

I was very impressed, actually, and I understood the complexity, given the age of the building.

Thank you very much.

I think it is an important topic, anything that we can do to meet the needs of the veterans.

I would be very interested, and also, just as my time runs down, just for planning purposes.

I was so impressed by this White River Junction facility with a separate facility for women.

Trust me, where I am talking about, the rent will be significantly less that be a million dollars.

This week, I am introducing commonsense legislation to encourage public and private partnerships to help meet the needs of New Hampshire students and businesses. The Workforce Development Investment Act would give tax incentives to firms…

I would like to read into the Record a letter that I received today from a 7-year-old in my district: Dear Congresswoman Kuster. My name is Noah Dutille. I am a second grader at Plymouth Elementary School. I am hoping that you will help…

Today, as we mark Equal Pay Day, we face the alarming reality that women still earn just 77 cents for every dollar earned by a man. As a Nation, we must do better than this. Women in my State of New Hampshire who work full time earn over…

we are concerned that those who live in rural communities have to pay more for less.

I am hopeful, and it sounds as though the Committee does have measures that we can all agree on to alleviate the burden.

I am proud of the folks from New Hampshire that were doing that good work.

And so we have shared this report with the FTC and those who oversee broadband to let them know that our nation, those who want to live in rural communities, must be able to get access to affordable and accessible broadband because it…
