I'm greatly disappointed in today's SCOTUS ruling that will allow the Administration to continue using an error-ridden database to try to disenfranchise eligible voters. We cannot allow @POTUS to block Americans from making their voices heard this November at the ballot box.
🚨 BREAKING: In a major loss for voters, the Supreme Court ruled 6-3 to allow the Trump administration to initiate voter roll purges using a flawed database involving Americans' private data. The ruling will disproportionately impact naturalized citizens who've been wrongly flagged in the system.

Today, @SenatorShaheen and 18 Democratic Senators issued a statement on @POTUS's summit with Chinese President Xi. "When Americans are struggling with rising costs of gas, electricity and groceries, President Trump rolled out the red carpet for Xi." 🔗 foreign.senate.gov/press/dem…

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.

Americans are paying more to drive to work, farmers are paying more to harvest crops and families are footing the bill at the checkout counter, yet Republicans just blocked an effort to rein in @POTUS' war in Iran that is responsible for these higher costs.

.@POTUS' war with Iran has put U.S. service members at immense risk. The latest news of 8 attempted suicides in the Lincoln Carrier Strike Group demands accountability from the Pentagon—especially as Congress is asked to consider Hung Cao's nomination to lead the Navy.

The President has made clear he doesn't care about affordability, and this is the result: Housing remains out of reach, energy costs are soaring and American taxpayers on the hook for at least $40 billion.

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.

Ahead of the Trump-Xi Summit today, Sen. Shaheen called out China's support for Iran: "It's not just satellite imagery [from China] that Iran relies on to carry out attacks on Americans. China also provides a critical economic lifeline to Iran." -@SenatorShaheen

🧵Trump meets with Xi today. While Americans struggle to afford groceries, Xi gets a presidential greeting at the airport, a lavish state dinner and Chinese flags at the White House. What are Americans getting in return? (1/6)
Chinese officials look on as some final adjustments to the red carpet are made for President Xi.

“We need to cut off the outside support that allows Iran to keep fighting and that starts with China. The Administration should enforce our sanctions against the Chinese entities helping Iran.” -@SenatorShaheen Read her remarks ⬇️ foreign.senate.gov/press/dem…

Portsmouth Naval Shipyard plays a key role in strengthening national security, creating jobs and bolstering our local economies. This year’s economic impact report is a testament to that, and I've been proud to support PNSY throughout my time in Congress. shaheen.senate.gov/news/pres…

It should go without saying that political violence has no home in New Hampshire, nor anywhere in America. It’s incumbent upon all leaders—regardless of political affiliation—to condemn those calls and all who stoke the flames.

President Trump's war with Iran has been a failure — and Americans are feeling the consequences. Higher gas and diesel prices, rising grocery prices and a war without end are not what Americans voted for.

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.

There’s nothing quite like fall in New Hampshire. From changing leaves to farm fresh apples, there’s so much to love about fall in the Granite State. Happy first day of Autumn!

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.
