Under no circumstances should politics be interfering with the work of our intelligence agencies. Let them pursue the facts. — PolitiTweet.org

Enjoyed speaking with the students of @NHSSPanthers' Woman as Hero class this morning via remote learning and answering their thoughtful questions. I'm heartened by their hard work and dedication to their studies during social distancing. https://t.co/PjPx478889 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Pres Trump’s demand that postage rates be quadrupled is outrageous. Every community relies on USPS. It's particularly vital for seniors & small businesses. I’m joining w/the NH Delegation in calling for relief for @USPS in future COVID-19 relief bills. Congress needs to act. https://t.co/R3C4Y8jTga — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Health care providers face shortages of medical supplies needed to fight COVID-19. That’s why I’m introducing a bill to federalize the supply chain & ensure the Defense Production Act is used to help expedite manufacturing & distribution of critical supplies to fight this crisis. https://t.co/sfDEOE4Bli — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

A time of crisis is not an opportunity for countries to move away from democratic values and norms. It's concerning to see the COVID-19 pandemic exploited in this way. As we tackle this crisis across the globe, we must continue to oppose these attacks on democracy. — PolitiTweet.org

This evening at 6:15 PM, I’ll be hosting a telephone town hall with @SenatorHassan on the COVID-19 pandemic in New Hampshire. A health expert from @DartmouthHitch & officials from @NHESWorking, @IRSnews & @SBA_NH will join. You can tune in by visiting https://t.co/5RfeBTreak. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Many Americans lack broadband internet & must use audio-based telehealth services to access needed health care. @Sen_JoeManchin @SenHydeSmith @JerryMoran & I are calling on @CMSgov to boost Medicare payments for audio-based services & ensure patients can stay safe in their homes. https://t.co/FVCIYReWKc — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The Trump administration continues to raid funding that Congress provided for our national security and divert it to his border wall. This is unconstitutional and dangerous. It also sets a horrible precedent. These projects are critical to deterring Russian aggression in Europe. https://t.co/jArf1N46pd — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Though students have shifted to remote learning during this crisis, schools continue to play an important role in ensuring many get the nutrition they need. Thankful for the efforts of @ConcordSAU8's cooks & others around NH working to provide students with meals each weekday. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Granite Staters: I’ll be hosting a telephone town hall with @SenatorHassan tomorrow (Thursday) at 6:15 PM on the COVID-19 pandemic in NH. A health expert & officials from @NHESWorking, @IRSnews & @SBA_NH will join. You can tune in by visiting https://t.co/5RfeBTreak. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Nonprofits are on the frontlines of the #COVID19 crisis - feeding, caring & providing medical assistance to our most vulnerable communities. Support to help them continue their vital work must be a priority in future coronavirus aid. Glad to join @SenBrianSchatz on this call: https://t.co/bvK1Aubm7E — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

UPDATE: NH providers have received 2nd batch of funds through the CARES Act & more is on the way. These funds are urgently needed to keep facilities open & staff on payroll but our work is far from over. I’ll keep fighting to get NH the support we need to endure this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Having access to news & information you can trust was critical before the #COVID19 outbreak, but even more so today as we endure this crisis. Granite Staters should take caution against dangerous misinformation & rely on information from public health officials based on science. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

We need to invest in our nation’s infrastructure. Bipartisan support exists. Infrastructure development will create jobs near-term and pay dividends economically for decades. Mitch McConnell’s obstruction stands in the way. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The Lifeline program can help families hard hit by COVID-19 stay connected to work, health care and more – but only if they know about it. I’m urging @FCC to coordinate with federal agencies to ensure Americans now eligible for SNAP & Medicaid know they also qualify for Lifeline. https://t.co/eZ5YNHC9pG — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

RT @WMUR9: Now on @WMUR9 - @SBAgov approves more than $70M in new relief funding for struggling NH small businesses, @SenatorShaheen says;… — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

This is why I was adamant in recent negotiations that Congress provide additional funding for this program. I’ll keep pushing the Trump admin to fix persistent problems in their implementation of small biz relief programs & Congress must provide stringent oversight. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

NEW: Nearly $70M for 5,500+ NH businesses has been approved through the EIDL program. This relief has been a lifeline for these NH businesses but much more work remains to ensure these, and many other small biz, can weather the financial crisis caused by the #COVID19 outbreak. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

RT @jdistaso: Just in: @SenatorShaheen says @SBAgov has approved more than $70M in loans & advances for more than 5,500 NH small businesses… — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

QUICK POLL: States, counties & towns provide many services like health care & schooling but are struggling financially due to COVID-19. Do you think Congress should help them provide essential services or should they be allowed to go bankrupt as Mitch McConnell has suggested? — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Small community lenders are being crowded out of access by bigger banks. Large companies who aren’t in need are getting funding. Tech problems persist. Funding for hires & system upgrades need to be fully utilized. We need to hear directly from admin officials about these issues. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

It’s time for Senate oversight hearings of small business relief programs (PPP & EIDL). These can be done virtually. I negotiated these programs in CARES Act, & while many small businesses have received help, in too many ways the Trump administration’s implementation has failed. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The Census helps ensure NH communities get the representation & funding they deserve – 52% of Granite Staters have responded to their Census survey which means NH still has a ways to go. #GetCounted at https://t.co/Od4IZoqCXP or by calling 844-330-2020. https://t.co/vAebFEMHrf — PolitiTweet.org

…We need to ensure everyone in our community has easy access to the support they need. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact the current hotline at 1-800-273-8255. You are not alone. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

I’m calling for legislation to designate 9-8-8 as the three-digit number for a national suicide and mental health crisis hotline in the next COVID-19 relief bill. Many Americans are facing mental health emergencies during these times of isolation and uncertainty... https://t.co/TpHr8kffFC — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Today I joined @BIAofNH to discuss the COVID-19 pandemic and provisions to support small businesses in the latest coronavirus relief bill. Thank you for your thoughtful questions! I’ll keep fighting for NH businesses and workers in future COVID-19 legislation. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Survivors of domestic violence & sexual assault-you are not alone during this crisis. Resources & support are available 24/7. In NH dial 1-866-644-3574 to connect with the DV hotline or 1-800-277-5570 to reach the SA hotline. Thank you @NHCADSV for your work to support survivors. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Our local governments urgently need access to COVID-19 relief funds, but the Trump admin has put in place bureaucratic restrictions & Mitch McConnell is wrong: bankruptcy is not an option. I’m calling on the admin to reverse course & allow local governments to access CARES funds. https://t.co/GLfJ2Jctkm — PolitiTweet.org
