Maggie Hassan

I tend to listen to young people when they talk to us about technology.

I don't want to trade one set of harms for another.

There is no doubt that automated vehicles have tremendous potential to save lives and reduce the nearly 4,000 deaths caused by large truck accidents each year.

From my experience, our Federal programs may not be properly incentivizing our States to make the necessary investments in our infrastructure that would help us mitigate the long-term consequences of a disaster.

I also believe it is critical that we make sure people have access to comprehensive coverage and really protect those guardrails in 1332s.

While we all want permitting decisions to occur quickly--God knows I do--the rules and processes we have in place are not always just 'red tape.'

It is important then that the President appoint a skilled and capable permanent Executive Director for the Council who is equipped with the authority necessary to push projects through to completion.

It is critical that the provisions we enact in this area be fully implemented so we can understand the impact that they will have before we look to do a whole lot more.

Lowering health care costs should not mean that patients experience worse outcomes; instead, we should take steps to incentivize value-based care.

The advance premium tax credits that we would have to pay as opposed to using that money as seed money for reinsurance and bringing down the overall cost I think weighs to the benefit side of the cost-benefit analysis.

If we are approaching $20 trillion, how much more can you generate.

People around New Hampshire, when I said we were going to have bipartisan hearings and listen to experts... there was a real sigh of relief.

So, I just would like the president to stop throwing insults at people dealing with a chronic illness, and really help us get the resources on the ground that we need.

But it's also that his actions since becoming president and advocating for the repeal of the Affordable Care Act for instance, which would repeal our bipartisan Medicaid expansion program, so critical to treatment in New Hampshire.

And it's not just New Hampshire, obviously, it's across the country.

And so, I am urging the president to stop just talking about this issue, and actually help us deal with it by helping us get the resources we need to get people into treatment, to get the kind of work force we need.

Well, I was outraged and it's just disgusting. We are in the middle of public health and public safety challenge and crisis in our state. It's an epidemic and to hear the president of the United States characterize people with chronic…

I look forward to working with all parties to ensure that older adults, people with disabilities, and their families understand the choices and services available to them and know how to access them.

Just because we are constrained for time, I think this, though, is very specific.

I am worried that delaying the deeming rule is contradictory to what the 2016 Surgeon General's report called for.

Vaccines save lives. They are the most important public health advance of our time, and they are not associated, with a high degree of medical certainty, with any form of autism.

It is also really important that people have access to an integrated healthcare system if they are going to successfully control their substance use disorder.

Just giving an opioid is not treatment. That is not going to solve the problem.

I have been concerned that Secretary Tom Price has been critical about medication-assisted treatments suggesting it is not very effective.

New Hampshire has been terribly hard hit by the opioid, fentanyl, and heroin epidemic.
