This afternoon, Billy and I went for a walk at Wagon Hill Farm in Durham. It was a reminder of how truly fortunate we are in NH to be surrounded by so much natural beauty. I hope you all get out for some fresh air today! (while social distancing) #EarthDay https://t.co/jH9N0SJvxV — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

We need a short- and long-term response strategy to combat #COVID19 and that MUST include a plan for manufacturing needles & syringes to administer a vaccine to the nation. The Trump admin needs to ramp-up our domestic medical supply chain NOW! My letter with @SenatorHassan: https://t.co/IUjs2cojeI — PolitiTweet.org

In NH, we’re lucky to be surrounded by so much natural beauty. While it’s hard to think about much beyond responding to COVID-19, we’re still facing a long-term crisis in climate change. On #EarthDay, we renew our commitment to protecting our environment for future generations. https://t.co/3M8GDq4Rsa — PolitiTweet.org

Pleased the admin heeded my call & committed to reducing interest rates for health care providers in Medicare advance payments as a part of future COVID-19 legislation. This will deliver financial relief to providers & help ensure medical care is available to those who need it. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Today on #YomHaShoah, we mourn & remember the six million Jewish lives taken & all those viciously murdered in the Holocaust. It’s on all of us to speak up & fight back against antisemitism & all forms of hatred & bigotry wherever they appear. #NeverAgain #HolocaustRemembranceDay — PolitiTweet.org

Local governments need more help as they work to provide services as tax revenues fall. Congress must pass this agreement & then provide help to meet the many other needs of our communities. Pres Trump must keep his promise to support state & local funding in future relief bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

This agreement recognizes small businesses need aid & we need more testing to reopen our economy. And as NH hospitals lay off workers, sending resources to providers is key to public health & safety. Oversight must be prioritized to ensure help goes into right hands. — PolitiTweet.org

I really enjoyed speaking with Holderness Central School’s 4th grade social studies class via remote learning this morning and answering their important questions. I thank them and their teacher for their hard work through remote learning during this challenging time. https://t.co/9qRVdDGJYT — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Unbelievable. The Trump admin should be working to strengthen, not weaken, proposed rules designed to protect Americans from exposure to harmful PFAS chemicals. The admin needs to listen to EPA scientists who understand the need to enact these important protections without delay. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Granite State teachers have done a tremendous job rising to the difficult challenges posed by this pandemic. I'm grateful to each and every educator for their hard work & perseverance in ensuring our children continue to get the best possible education under these circumstances. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

From farms to grocery stores – food supply chain workers are on the frontlines of the #COVID19 pandemic & are risking their health to ensure Americans can put food on the table. I joined with @SenStabenow in calling on admin to do better & make these workers’ safety a priority. https://t.co/hJ5e8hoGpV — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

I was inspired when I welcomed these young women to DC in 2017. I’m in awe of their determination & continued resolve to make an impact, whether that’s overcoming education barriers for girls in Afghanistan, or now, re-engineering machinery to save lives in their community. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

This week is National Crime Victims’ Rights Week. I’ll always fight for crime victims and work to ensure that they and their families receive the federal support they need to recover, stay safe and seek justice. It's on all of us to help show they are not alone. — PolitiTweet.org

Scammers are taking advantage of the COVID-19 Pandemic and it’s important to protect yourself and others. Stay alert and visit the NH Department of Justice website for important guidance: https://t.co/Aat7TqRUil https://t.co/JC2R3lSJRk — PolitiTweet.org

NH cities and counties have been hard hit by COVID-19 and urgently need access to CARES Act resources to fill funding gaps, but arbitrary rules are blocking their ability to receive direct relief. @ChrisVanHollen and I are calling on @federalreserve to fix these rules ASAP. https://t.co/NXyCBuxlSV — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The testimony provided by New Hampshire hospitals today was a sobering reminder of the significant financial challenges NH’s providers face and why I continue to call for additional federal assistance for hospitals in future COVID-19 response legislation. https://t.co/PQuI8Mt2OO — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Granite Staters: Today is Know & Tell Day. It’s on us to protect children, meaning it’s critical that we KNOW the signs of child abuse & TELL proper authorities when we recognize them. Info can be reported to DCYF by calling 1-800-894-5533. For urgent safety concerns, call 911. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Just finished a call w/admins of NH nursing homes & long-term care facilities. These facilities have been hard hit by COVID-19 & urgently need more support to protect residents & staff. Appreciated their update & I’ll work to secure the resources they need in future relief bills. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

As we endure this public health & economic emergency, I’ll keep working across the aisle and with state and local officials to ensure Congress responds to the needs in our state as we fight – and overcome – this crisis together. https://t.co/ftdcvrjJpI — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

NEW: $625M in direct federal aid through the CARES Act was transferred to NH to support our #COVID19 response. This is half of $1.25B that NH will receive. This initial funding should be put to good use to help our state weather this storm, but much more aid is needed. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

NH hospitals have made it clear: they need resources as they battle the COVID-19 crisis. This is why I’ve been fighting for funding for our health care providers in the next bill that Congress takes up to respond to COVID-19 crisis. Let’s get it done! https://t.co/jDGyfuG4IK — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Happy Orthodox Easter to all those in New Hampshire and across the world who are celebrating! I hope you’re able to find time to connect with your loved ones today. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Far too many Granite Staters and Americans living in rural communities are in danger of losing their homes as a result of COVID-19. Congress needs to stand up for these families and ensure rural housing programs get the funding they need in upcoming COVID-19 response legislation. https://t.co/tZhUq5KKWR — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Older Americans who suffer from diabetes are particularly at risk of serious complications from COVID-19. I’m calling on @CMSgov to protect Medicare beneficiaries & allow them full access to virtual providers in the Medicare Diabetes Prevention Program during this pandemic. https://t.co/LVY94iJzh2 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Today NH received another delivery of lifesaving personal protective equipment to be distributed to those on the frontlines of COVID-19. Grateful for Dean Kamen’s work to secure this shipment of over 500K face masks & @Boeing for donating the cost of transporting these supplies. https://t.co/2PmVHvoVfY — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

.@HHSGov needs to direct increased funding to Medicaid providers and rural hospitals. Nearly one in four rural hospitals were at risk of closure before COVID-19. We need to make sure hospitals serving rural communities in NH can continue to deliver care during this crisis. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

I’ve been urging the CDC to address source patient testing to avoid sidelining NH 1st responders. Glad CDC worked w/ NH on a plan to prioritize testing for patients that 1st responders come in contact with. This will help keep these heroes safe and on the job. — PolitiTweet.org
