I worked with Chairman Murray and Ranking Member Blunt last year to fund a grant program to help educate our physicians.
Jeanne Shaheen
The Public Record
Jeanne Shaheen is an American politician serving as the senior United States senator from New Hampshire, a position she has held since January 3, 2009. A member of the Democratic Party, she is the first woman to be elected governor of New Hampshire, serving from 1997 to 2003. During her tenure in the Senate, Shaheen has focused on issues such as healthcare, education, and national security, often advocating for policies that support working families and promote economic growth.
I have heard from some of the members of the Nepalese community in New Hampshire that we are also seeing even faster rates of spread of the virus in Nepal.
It has also created a global food security and malnutrition crisis, which you know very well.
China should immediately end these atrocities and respect the human rights of Uyghurs and all others across China.
Well, I think one place where the importance of trade agreements in addressing that was USMCA.
Our trade system itself creates an incentive to compete by maintaining lower environmental standards, or worse yet, by lowering those standards even further.
In my view, taking a tough, but more thoughtful, approach will help level the playing field for American workers.
Trade policy, in my view, can't be divorced from environmental policy as our future prosperity is tied to tackling climate change.
It's important to consider the new administration's trade policies and strategy.
I look forward to hearing what you have to say and to hearing the questions that we have.
Thank you very much, Senator Collins. And let me just add my voice to Senator Collins with respect to lobster.
I believe we have got to keep up this effort after the United States withdraws.
I will not support any efforts that will allow them to continue to commit these horrific acts without any accountability for their behavior.
It should not require courage to stand up for basic human rights like Fatima Khalil or Freshta Kohistani both did.
I have repeatedly raised concerns about the inclusion of women in the Afghan peace process and, of course, about the preservation of women's rights in Afghanistan.
It is not a women's issue. It is a human rights issue, and it is a security issue for the future of Afghanistan.
The questions that Senator Hawley and Senator Marshall are raising about support for Planned Parenthood under the PPP program. That was done under the Trump administration, under SBA Administrator Carranza.
It is because the data shows that when women are involved in conflict resolution, it means that the resulting agreement is 35 percent more likely to last for 15 years or more.
I certainly share Chairman Murphy's concern about any resumption of arms sales to Saudi Arabia, as long as--well, generally, but particularly around what is happening in Yemen.
