Friends,

This week marked 100 days since I took the oath of office to represent you in the People’s House. 

To everyone who has met with and been in touch with our team over the past 100 days: thank you.

It’s the honor of my lifetime to represent my home state and to bring your voices and priorities to Congress. Please know our team is here to support you: 603-226-1002.

For real-time updates on my work fighting for the Granite State, I hope you’ll consider following me on Facebook, Instagram, Threads, Bluesky, Twitter, and YouTube. In the meantime, here’s a recap of some of the latest developments from this week. 

DEFENDING MEDICAID

I will always fight to defend the programs you and your family rely on.

I loved meeting Jenna from Somersworth and Lisa from Troy, who shared with me the critical role that Medicaid Home and Community-Based Services play in their lives and for their families. What they shared is true for tens of thousands of people across New Hampshire: HCBS is a lifeline. 

Jenna and Lisa are why I will never give up this fight. Learn more about their stories here.

FIGHTING FOR OUR COMMUNITIES

Wonderful to meet with the people who make the YMCA of Greater Nashua such an incredible resource for our state.

I learned to swim at the old YMCA right on Prospect Street in Nashua. I know firsthand the role the YMCA of Greater Nashua and YMCAs across New Hampshire play in our communities.

Whether it’s child care, health and wellness support, or sports programs for young Granite Staters, I am proud to support the YMCA’s critical mission here in New Hampshire. I will keep fighting to defend every federal dollar that makes their programming possible.

Grateful to the incredible community at the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Salem, NH, and clubs across our state.

New Hampshire’s kids are our future. 

I’m proud to support the work and mission of the Boys & Girls Club of Greater Salem, NH. This week in Salem, I got to see firsthand the lasting impact their team is having on the community and how they are equipping our youngest generations with the life skills they need to thrive.

FIGHTING BACK AGAINST PRESIDENT TRUMP'S SENSELESS TRADE WAR

I will always fight to protect New Hampshire’s small businesses on the House Small Business Committee.

New Hampshire small businesses and families are paying the price for President Trump’s widespread, indiscriminate tariffs. This week, I demanded that the Administration reverse course immediately and highlighted the devastating impact this trade war will have on the business community here in the Granite State.

New Hampshire is home to more than 142,500 small businesses, and 99% of all New Hampshire businesses are small businesses. Our small businesses, which are the backbone of our economy, cannot operate in such a volatile and unpredictable economic climate.

HOLDING ELON MUSK ACCOUNTABLE

I am fighting with everything I’ve got to protect your freedoms and personal information.

Federal law is clear: under 18 U.S.C. § 202(a), Elon Musk must be removed from his position at DOGE by May 30, 2025.

I sent a letter to President Trump demanding that Elon Musk, an unelected billionaire who has caused chaos in the lives of thousands of Granite Staters, be removed from his position in our government in accordance with federal law.

Read the full letter to President Trump here.
