I stopped by Coffee & Kindness in Nashua for a thoughtful conversation about how we meet the needs of our families and communities. Since launching our campaign, the response has been overwhelming. I'll continue to show up, to listen, and to always put New Hampshire first.

We will win this fight by standing together, speaking out, and making our voices heard. Thank you to the hundreds of Granite Staters who braved the rain in Concord to protect our communities, families, and economy from this reckless administration.

I couldn’t think of a better place to launch this campaign than the Puritan. We’ve celebrated many election night victories here, but tonight, we’re starting a new journey. I’m so grateful for everyone who has joined us on Day One.

After winning four terms in one of the most competitive districts in the nation, I know what it takes to win a battleground race. But I can’t do it without your support — chip in to become a Founding Donor to our campaign: secure.actblue.com/donate/socia...

I’m in. Today I’m announcing my campaign for U.S. Senate because New Hampshire needs a fighter who gets things done. Let’s do this.

Ended the day with the Nashua Democrats at their spaghetti dinner! Always glad to catch up with friends who are committed to the important work that will move our communities forward.

Lots of laughs at the Manchester Democrats' annual St. Patrick’s Day Breakfast honoring and roasting our friend Senator Pat Long! #NHPolitics

Great to catch up with friends in Derry at Rockingham Brewing this afternoon! There’s much to be done to keep our communities strong, and I’ll always make sure Granite Staters’ voices are heard in Washington.

Stopped by the New England Sports Hub in Somersworth with Mayor @MattGerdingNH! Small businesses are the backbone of our economy. I’ll keep putting the interests of Granite State businesses and workers front and center.

President Trump and Elon Musk want to "move fast and break things," and that's what they are doing to Social Security. I'll fight this Administration every step of the way to protect the benefits that Granite Staters earned. www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...

Wrapped up our ten-county Grounded in Granite Tour in Strafford County at Breakaway Cafe in Dover this morning. Thank you to everyone across the state who came out to join us, shared your experiences and thoughts, and offered your encouragement and support.

I got a few friends together in Carroll County this afternoon for a beer and conversation about how we shape the future of our state and nation. Thanks to everyone who turned out at Ledge Brewing in Intervale!

Started the day in Coös County at Bretton Woods! Skiing and outdoor recreation are vital to our economy, but Trump’s tariffs are raising costs, causing chaos, and deterring Canadian visitors. I’ll keep fighting to strengthen our economy and stand up to harmful trade policies.

Our Grounded in Granite Tour brought us to Laconia this afternoon. Thank you to my friends in Belknap County for coming out to talk about how we can meet the moment and stand up for what’s right.

I wouldn't be who I am without my public school education, including at Central High School in Manchester. I'm back today to stand with teachers, parents, and community members to support public education and fight against attacks from Washington that will hurt our students.

Thank you to everyone who came out to join us at Spyglass Brewing in Nashua this afternoon! I’m grateful for the thoughtful conversations we’re having in every corner of the state about how we can move our country forward.

I’m the proud product of public schools and a strong supporter of public education. President Trump does not have the authority to dismantle the Department of Education, and I will fight to defend the funding and programs that help NH students succeed. www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcn...

Americans rely on the Postal Service to get their medications, run small businesses, and stay connected to friends and family. Today I joined Granite Staters outside the Loudon Road Post Office in Concord to stand against this Administration’s plan to dismantle the USPS.

So many folks joined our event at Lucky’s Coffee Garage in Lebanon that we moved it outside to have a full discussion about the issues facing our country. Thank you to everyone who is showing up for our Grounded in Granite Tour in all ten counties this week. #NHPolitics

Our Grounded in Granite Tour stopped for lunch in Claremont at Ramunto’s! Thanks to this great group of new and old friends who joined us to discuss how we can work together to strengthen our communities, help working families, and put New Hampshire first.

My work is grounded in the people and places of New Hampshire. That’s why I’m hitting the road this week to keep listening and learning from Granite Staters about how to make a difference. Kicked off the day in Keene at Brewbakers!

I’m overwhelmed by the encouragement I've received to consider running for U.S. Senate at this pivotal moment for our country and democracy. I've spent my life right here in New Hampshire working to strengthen our communities and make a difference. That will always be my goal.

Senator Shaheen is a trailblazer who has worked every day to put New Hampshire first and make a difference for our families, community, and economy. Thank you for always leading with integrity, determination, and effectiveness for our state and nation.

#InternationalWomensDay is for celebrating and recognizing the achievements of women and girls around the globe — especially here in the Granite State. I remain committed to pushing for progress and ensuring opportunity, equality, and dignity for women.

Slashing VA staff will delay veterans' access to lifesaving services. I’ll continue to fight against senseless cuts and ensure that our country keeps its solemn promise to provide care, benefits, and respect to those who serve in our armed forces. bit.ly/4bqijb7

Last night, 217 House Republicans voted for a reckless budget that will gut health care and food assistance for thousands of Granite Staters. I will keep fighting for working families and focus on making life more affordable. apnews.com/article/john...

Great to catch up with friends at Pappy’s in Manchester about the issues our communities are facing across the state, including here in my hometown. I remain committed to delivering results that make a difference for Granite Staters.

Great to visit friends at the State House this morning! From Concord to Washington, there is so much work to be done to lower costs, protect vital programs, and improve the lives of Granite Staters.

#TeamPappas is stepping up to volunteer in communities across NH! This weekend we helped serve lunch at Families in Transition's emergency shelter. If you're looking for ways to help and make a difference, sign up for our next Community Action Day: forms.gle/hKgXW4SC9hx1...

Always a pleasure catching up with friends in Portsmouth at Cup of Joe Cafe & Bar! These are challenging times, but it’s important that we continue to support our communities and work together. I’m committed to fighting for Granite Staters every step of the way.

This is the right call for working people in New Hampshire. I'm grateful to organized labor and the bipartisan coalition that stopped this attempt to weaken worker protections and bargaining rights. The fight continues to defend workers and strengthen the economy for all. bit.ly/4hudFuN

Make no mistake: reproductive rights must be restored for women across the country. No judge or politician should dictate personal health care decisions. That’s why I remain committed to passing the Women’s Health Protection Act, which would codify the right to abortion care.

The Trump Administration's federal funding freeze would cost cities and towns millions—hurting the delivery of vital services that make our communities safe, healthy, and strong. I will continue to defend the resources NH needs to thrive. #NHPolitics www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/2...

Canada is NH’s #1 trading partner, and heating oil is the state's top import. Sweeping tariffs threaten our economy and would be disastrous for families and businesses across the Granite State, significantly increasing energy and housing costs. www.nhpr.org/nh-news/2025...

I’ve heard from thousands who are deeply concerned about Elon Musk’s intrusion into sensitive government systems. I’ve urged the Administration to stop this lawless activity and protect Americans’ data. I will continue to do what I can to fight against this extreme overreach.
