While Scott Brown looks for yet another opportunity to do Wall Street’s bidding and blindly support President Trump and his agenda, I’ll always put New Hampshire first.

Trump needs to ‘back off’ trade war with Canada

We’re putting penalties back in so it’s enforcing the law that already exists.

A trailblazer who has worked every day to put New Hampshire first.

Drunk and impaired driving traffic deaths have increased by 33 percent in the last 5 years...

I know my State has itself hundreds of millions of dollars of unused toll credits that are on the table...

I think it is a commonsense change.

Individuals with disabilities deserve equal access to support from SBA and this bipartisan legislation is an important step forward that will help achieve that.

Small business ownership is a major pathway for all Americans to achieve success and self-sufficiency and people with disabilities participate in entrepreneurship at a higher rate than nondisabled Americans.

In New Hampshire, our small businesses are part of the backbone of our local economies and make up the fabric of our rural communities.

Solutions just don't come from this place. They come from our main streets.

Your agenda must be Congress' agenda when it comes to delivering for our veterans.

It is really important... to understand that we work for you.

I think any sort of political narrative that is ginned up to try to sow doubt among veterans is dangerous and is counterproductive to the work that is ongoing at VA.

Ensuring veterans receive a decision on their appeals promptly, along with an accurate and comprehensive decision, remains a top priority.

Obviously at BVA, we are grateful for the attorneys, the judges that are so essential in that system to ensure that it operates efficiently, but also, most importantly, effectively and accurately for the veterans.

Ensuring the accuracy and fairness of appeal decisions is as crucial as expediting the process itself.

While the AMA has shown promise, it is not working as fast as we hoped it would.

The current average time that it takes to have an appeal claim adjudicated by the Board ranges from less than a year to up to 2-1/2 years.

It just does not seem like the opportune time to be cutting back or scaling back support for this critical program.
