Jeanne Shaheen: “There are some other potential threats, I think, to failure to act, one of which is Russia.”

This is our best opportunity to support Ukraine. We are defending not just their country but the rest of Europe from an increasingly aggressive Russia.

Substance use disorder impacts communities in every corner of our state, and I’ve heard from countless families who have been torn apart by this crisis.

This is a time in the country when people are losing faith in institutions, particularly young people. And so having these kinds of traditions that people can relate to that help humanize what goes on here I think is really important.

I’m proud to reintroduce this critical legislation that will secure long-term investment in prevention and treatment to ensure we keep up the fight against the substance use crisis for years to come.
