Join us this Friday in North Conway! I'll be at Saco River Brewing Taphaus from 5:30-7:00, and I’d love to see you there. All are welcome!

1) It was opposite day at the State of the Union. Trump pointed to lower drug prices, but premiums for Granite Staters have jumped by double digits under him and Republicans in Congress.

My time in the Marines taught me about servant leadership, accountability, & getting things done. We won’t see much of that at tonight’s State of the Union. But if we set aside the spin & trust what we see with our own eyes & know to be true in our own communities, we can build a better nation.

This is great news! The people of Merrimack and folks across New Hampshire stood up for their community – and won. Public pressure works. But we should not rely on public pressure alone. Congress must act to bring this rogue agency under control. #NHPolitics www.wmur.com/article/ice-...

ICE is recklessly endangering lives here in NH. It must stop. Call Senators Shaheen and Hassan, and Representative Pappas. Ask them to ensure detainees aren’t shackled and only those with valid deportation orders are being detained. #NHPolitics www.wmur.com/article/port...

This economy is leaving Granite Staters behind. It’s time for leadership grounded in experience, accountability, and results. As a Marine and former senior government official, that is exactly what I will bring to Congress. #NHPolitics

Thanks to advocacy from so many across NH and the country, the VA retracted its recent rule change that would have cut veterans' benefits. In times when so much feels out of our control, this shows that when we stand up and speak out – WE still have the power. Keep up the fight.

Big thank you to everyone who packed our Portsmouth house party. It was great to see so many neighbors engaged, energized, and ready to fight for our community. We're building a winning coalition one neighborhood conversation at a time. Thank you for hosting, Shanika!

I am so proud to have the support of Cindy and Tom. Cindy is the At-Large School Board Member in Manchester, and Tom is a former public school teacher. Thank you for believing in me, our team, and that change is possible. Onward!

Tariffs are taxes, & Granite Staters paid the price. NH exports roughly $7 billion per year. After Trump's tariffs, exports to Canada – our second-largest trading partner – dropped 40%. Glad SCOTUS put an end to it. It’s time to invest in our infrastructure & American manufacturing. #NHPolitics

I'll continue to show up for our communities across the First District and work closely with the local leaders who know their towns and cities best. I'm humbled and proud to have earned the support of Alderman At-Large June Trisciani and so many other dedicated Manchester leaders.

Many of Epstein’s victims were in the room at the Pam Bondi hearing. Asked if they’d been contacted by the DOJ: not a single hand went up. Asked if they’d cooperate with an investigation: every hand did. We’re watching powerful people being protected in real time.

Thank you to everyone who came out to the Bookery yesterday! From housing to healthcare, real change starts in communities, and no one knows their communities better than local leaders. It is truly an honor to earn the support of such a broad swath of Manchester advocates and elected officials.

I’m proud to have the support of 7 more Manchester elected and community leaders, bringing our total endorsers in the Queen City to 38. These leaders know this economy isn’t working for regular people, and they’re ready for a leader who will actually deliver results for Granite Staters. #NHPolitics

I swore an oath as a Marine officer to defend this country and the freedoms that define it. I’m ready to take the oath in Congress and continue the fight: for veterans, for working families, for affordable, high-quality healthcare for every American. #NHPolitics

I’m proud to have served under President Obama as an Asst. Secretary of the VA & senior Pentagon official working to improve Veterans healthcare & strengthen national security. While presidents change, our commitment to government of, by, & for the people must never waver. Happy Presidents’ Day 🇺🇲

The GOP cut our healthcare so they could spend $38.3 billion of our tax dollars on mass detention camps, including one in Merrimack, NH. That’s a profound & dangerous misplacement of priorities. We should be investing in housing, lowering costs, & supporting families – not building a police state.

ICE is detaining and mistreating people right here in NH, and our tax dollars are paying for it. If you’re as outraged as I am, please call your member of Congress and tell them to do their job and hold ICE accountable.

In a time of corrupt politicians, voters are looking for leaders grounded in service. Proud to be running alongside the Hell Cats – a group of women veterans – stepping up to make our country safer & more affordable. Nobody fights harder than a mom who’s also a Marine. 19thnews.org/2026/02/hell...

Super Bowl chili with Drake Maye’s biggest fan! #GoPats

I strongly disagree with Democrats who voted last week to continue funding ICE. Not one more dollar for this agency until it is completely overhauled from top to bottom. No more masked secret police. Democrats must use their power and demand the cessation of ICE’s violence and terror. #NHPolitics

Started the New Year off right this past weekend with the Manchester City Democrats. Thank you to Maxine Mosley, Joshua Query, and everyone who organized such a fun potluck and raffle. Grateful for the meaningful conversations as we build momentum for the year ahead! #NHPolitics

One silver lining of the weather lately: perfect ice at Strawbery Banke in Portsmouth! So much joy skating with Marc and the kiddos ❄️ ⛸️

Happy New Year New Hampshire! We launched our campaign for Congress this year, and we are just getting started!!

Merry Christmas from our home to yours! Wishing you a safe and joyful holiday season filled with gratitude, reflection, and hope — and meaningful time spent with family and dear friends.

Always wonderful to stop by The Christmas Dove in Barrington. Thank you to Garth Svenson and his entire team for creating such a magical experience. Happy Holidays from our family to yours!

One of my favorite moments of each year with my little helper 🥰🎄

A huge thank you to Charlie Wheelan, Sen. Sue Prentiss, and Jill Mortali for co-hosting a spectacular event!

Happy Hanukkah from our family to yours! Wishing a peaceful and joyous celebration to those who celebrate across New Hampshire and our country.

I enjoyed meeting with local chapter leaders of Citizens Climate Lobby at Commune à Tea in Laconia last week. New Hampshire already faces significant risks from climate change and it is critical that we work to address those challenges.

Terrific house party in Rye this week! Granite Staters are showing up every day to help us build the broad coalition it will take to keep this seat blue.

I hear it everywhere I go — from Democrats, Independents and even Republicans: people are tired of the same old politics in Washington.

I so enjoyed our annual tradition heading to Emery Farm in Durham this past weekend to pick out our Christmas Tree with my favorite little helpers. Grateful for all of the local businesses that keep our holidays bright! #NHPolitics

To the military family members throughout New Hampshire who serve and sacrifice alongside their service members — we thank you and honor you. 🇺🇸 #NHPolitics

November is Diabetes Awareness Month — a time to support everyone affected by any form of Diabetes. Today I’m thinking of many in our communities, including my fellow Veterans, who are navigating this condition.

Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours 🧡 🦃 This year has brought both joy and challenges for so many across New Hampshire.

I am ready to fight and deliver for Granite Staters on Day 1. #NHPolitics

I’m deeply honored to have the support of three outstanding former Pentagon leaders: Army Secretary Christine Wormuth, Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall, and Navy Secretary Carlos Del Toro.

The vote to release the Epstein Files in Congress this week is a win for the survivors and the American people. #NHPolitics

I strongly condemn the President’s calls for executing my fellow Veterans who serve as Members of Congress. There is no place whatsoever for political violence in this country. This is unacceptable and appalling behavior from our commander-in-chief.

Proud to wear purple this November in honor of Prematurity Awareness Month — a time to celebrate the strength and courage of the 1 in 10 babies born too soon and the loving families who stand beside them. #NHPolitics

During the Iraq War, I supported efforts to secure free and fair elections, helping ensure that men and women could safely cast their ballots and participate in shaping their democracy.

I’m prepared to fight for the people of our First District on day one. Great to be on CloseUp with Adam Sexton to discuss how we are going to bring down costs and protect healthcare. Click the link below to watch my full interview. #NHPolitics

Terrific house party this afternoon in Candia. We are feeling the grassroots momentum in every corner of the district. Thank you to Barbara and Jay Lewinter for welcoming us into their home (also grateful the @Patriots played on Thursday night)! #NHPolitics

Tune in to @WMUR9 Close Up tomorrow at 10:30am! We talked about my priorities for the 1st District:

Congratulations to the NHDP on another successful Eleanor Roosevelt Dinner last night! The tireless work of the NHDP, its staff, and countless volunteers helped lay the groundwork for our victories last week and is paving the way for 2026.

Grateful to have fellow Iraq Veteran, Congressman @JasonCrowCO by my side yesterday on the campaign trail in  Manchester. Congressman Crow knows what it takes to win tough battles and he knows how critical it is that we keep our First Congressional District blue.

In the Marines, I learned to never leave anyone behind. As Assistant Secretary of the VA, I fought to expand health care for 9 million veterans.

We’ve served our country in uniform. Now we are stepping up to serve again. We are The Hell Cats — four female veterans that are going to flip the House in 2026. Join the mission → www.hellcats.us/
