During National Recovery Month, we recognize the strength and resilience of all those battling substance use disorder and the families, friends and communities who support them. I’ll continue to work to ensure every Granite Stater has access to the treatment, resources and support they need.

Granite Staters should not have to choose between putting food on the table and keeping their homes warm this winter. With energy prices soaring due to the President’s reckless war in Iran, I’m pressing the Administration to release home heating assistance immediately.

President Trump promised to support American manufacturing, but between tariffs, soaring energy prices and increased borrowing costs, we’ve seen just the opposite. In President Trump’s economy, small businesses are being squeezed at every turn. www.cnbc.com/2026/09/20/t...

Today, we celebrate National Public Lands Day. From our mountains and forests to our rivers and trails, our public lands are part of what makes New Hampshire so special. I’ll keep fighting to preserve these places so Granite Staters and visitors can enjoy them for years to come.

China needs to get the message that if they want to continue to buy Russian gas, if they want to continue to help Russia fuel and pay for this unprovoked war that is killing civilians, they're going to have to pay. And they're going to have to pay market value.

U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen @shaheen.senate.gov · 24/09/2026
We know the Iranians are using targeting information from China and Russia to help them hit American assets. It is unconscionable that we are not doing everything possible to go after Vladimir Putin, to go after China, to stop their attacks against American men and women.

Portsmouth Naval Shipyard plays an indispensable role in strengthening national security, creating jobs and bolstering local economies across our region. This year’s economic impact report is a testament to that, and I've been proud to support PNSY throughout my time in Congress.

China and Russia are helping Iran against our service members. It is unconscionable that the President continues to cozy up to both leaders. With President Xi in Washington, now is the time to exert maximum pressure on Russia and those nations funding their war.

We have a real opportunity to lower health care costs for millions of Americans by passing my INSULIN Act to cap the cost of insulin at $35 a month. With strong bipartisan and bicameral support, I’m working hard to get it passed.

Vladimir Putin has been stringing everyone along, stringing along the Trump administration and his envoys because he thinks he can wait us out. Congress will not let Putin and Russia wait us out. We are going to do everything we can to put pressure on them.

I just came from President Trump's speech at the UN. The takeaway is clear: Americans are paying too much for gasoline, diesel, groceries and so much more because of his war in Iran. They want to see it end, and end now.

U.S. Senator Jeanne Shaheen @shaheen.senate.gov · 22/09/2026
The American people are footing the bill for the President's reckless war with Iran. We know this war is costing us about $1 billion a week, and that estimate doesn't even include damaged assets or the sky-high diesel and gas prices that Americans are being forced to pay as a result.

Stars and Stripes has told the story of our nation’s military for decades, and its independence is critical. Sec. Hegseth's shameful attacks on the publication’s integrity must end, and I’ve introduced legislation to ensure that is the case. www.stripes.com/theaters/asi...

The President broke his promises not to start forever wars. Instead of addressing the cost of living, he's more concerned about building an arch in DC or putting his name on the Kennedy Center, all while Americans struggle to make ends meet.

Our Russia sanctions legislation will put pressure on Vladimir Putin to come to the table and end this awful war in Ukraine. To all of our adversaries: there are consequences for violating international law.

Americans shouldn't go broke to afford the insulin they need. We must take action to lower the cost of insulin so that no one has to make impossible choices just to pay for this life-saving medicine. I’m going to keep fighting for the bipartisan INSULIN Act to do just that.

Canada is now “aggressively” shifting its trading elsewhere due to the President's trade war and insults by Sec. Lutnick and others. Make no mistake: As New Hampshire's most important trading partner, pushing Canada away will hurt Granite Staters. www.washingtonpost.com/us-policy/20...

We need to send a very strong message not just to Vladimir Putin, but to China and to anybody who is buying Russian oil and gas, that they are going to pay a price for that because they are facilitating Russia's unprovoked and horrific war in Ukraine.

The Trump Administration's third country immigration operation is completely incompetent, raises serious human rights concerns and is a massive waste of taxpayer dollars. Yet another example of an incompetent Administration.

The Trump Administration has funneled millions of taxpayer dollars to corrupt nations as part of their third country deportation program. This operation is completely un-American, and it needs to end now.

The level of incompetence from this Administration is staggering. The war in Iran has cost at least $40 billion, accomplishing nothing but soaring energy costs, spiking inflation, the depletion of our munition stockpiles and loss of confidence in the U.S. as a reliable ally.
