How are we going to deal with job training for the next generation and for the people who are today going to be displaced by this technology?
Maggie Hassan
The Public Record
Maggie Hassan is an American politician serving as the junior United States senator from New Hampshire since January 3, 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, she previously held the position of the 81st governor of New Hampshire from January 3, 2013, to January 5, 2017. During her tenure as governor, Hassan focused on expanding access to healthcare, improving the state's economy, and addressing issues related to education and infrastructure.
If U.S. regulators are not able to foster safe testing and deployment of AV technology through modernizations like those in AV START, the rest of the world will not sit by.

One challenge we faced in New Hampshire is the need to ensure that our first responders in the Granite State have enough information about what dangerous chemicals or other products are traveling through by freight rail.
I would appreciate--you know, I'd look forward to talking with you more about it, because it became--I think, for all states, it's a real issue.
I will say that the See Something, Say Something campaign is premised on something a little bit different than what you all just said.
The campaign is simple, and many of the thwarted terrorist attacks in the U.S. were stopped because everyday people alerted authorities to suspicious behavior.
In fact, one of the reasons we all came together to implement Medicaid expansion is because we had a crisis in our behavioral health and drug overdose deaths in our state.
It's astounding that one paragraph jotted down in 1980 helped fuel the horrible epidemic that we are seeing today.
I was Governor of New Hampshire starting in January 2013. I'm also a Governor who worked with my Republican legislature to implement Medicaid expansion.
And my own anecdotal sense that Medicaid expansion did not, in fact, cause an increase in opioid deaths is reinforced by a recent article in Health Affairs.
