According to a new @UN report on climate change, we are now at real risk of crossing critical tipping points that, if passed, would be irreversible. This would mean a greater chance of devastating storms, rising sea levels & severe harm to the lives and livelihoods of Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Private equity firms on Wall Street are desperately trying to maintain the status quo when it comes to surprise medical bills. Congress needs to do right by patients and ignore these special interests. It’s time to end surprise medical bills that are upending family budgets. — PolitiTweet.org

The USS Thresher Memorial is an opportunity for our nation to honor the life, service and sacrifice of Peter Joseph DiBella and his crewmates. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Growing up in Portsmouth, Seaman Peter Joseph DiBella had always wanted to be a man of the sea. He enlisted in the Navy, volunteering as a submariner. Peter would later be assigned as a crew member of the USS Thresher and was recognized for his outstanding performance of duty. https://t.co/3YOpzzuj8k — PolitiTweet.org

As we prepare to dedicate the USS Thresher Memorial at Arlington National Cemetery this Thursday, we should pause to remember one of the Granite Staters who were tragically lost on April 10, 1963. — PolitiTweet.org

He was also a WWII veteran. https://t.co/HU9ExAGFXO — PolitiTweet.org

Over the next couple days in the lead up to the ceremony, I'll be highlighting the lives and stories of some of the men who grew up in the Granite State and lost their lives serving their nation aboard the Thresher. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

This Thursday, a ceremony will be held at @ArlingtonNatl to dedicate the USS Thresher Memorial, which will honor the 129 brave men who paid the ultimate sacrifice when their submarine tragically sank 56 years ago. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Shameful that the United States joins a host of dictatorships at the UN to undermine the well-being of women and girls. President Trump’s attacks on women’s health care globally are leading to a dangerous decline in life-saving services for women and children. — PolitiTweet.org

Gulalai is a courageous human rights defender who has fought for the women of Pakistan and has been repaid with threats on her life. I urge the expeditious approval of her asylum application. https://t.co/Eu56Kjaw1y — PolitiTweet.org

International trade is vital to supporting NH's economy and helps tech companies such as @ExtremeNetworks in Salem stay competitive in the global market. Appreciated having the opportunity to visit today and answer some thoughtful questions from employees in a town hall. https://t.co/7uHX43QCtp — PolitiTweet.org

Today on POW/MIA Recognition Day, we pause to honor & remember the more than 81,000 American service members listed as missing in action, as well as those who suffered as prisoners of war. We recommit to returning our missing troops back home and affirm you are not forgotten. https://t.co/zakV8xkkTf — PolitiTweet.org

My bipartisan legislation would authorize a comprehensive study of the protective gear worn by firefighters to identify their risk of exposure to harmful PFAS chemicals. I'll be rallying support in the Senate for this bill & will continue to work to protect firefighters' health. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Firefighters risk their lives each day to protect their communities – the last thing they should have to worry about is the safety of their own protective gear. That’s why today I announced my introduction of the Guaranteeing Equipment Safety for Firefighters Act. https://t.co/F9JbF6xBSt — PolitiTweet.org

I join our veterans community and all Granite Staters in thanking Director Al Montoya for his extraordinary service. My statement on Director Montoya leaving the Manchester VA Medical Center to take up another position within the VA: https://t.co/63DFavuKSx — PolitiTweet.org

Congratulations to @CCSNH603 chair Paul Holloway on being awarded the 2019 Walter R. Peterson Award! For decades, Paul has been a strong champion of higher education in NH. Glad to have had the opportunity to speak at last night’s ceremony in Nashua honoring his contributions. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Wall Street firms have been spending huge sums of dark money in NH & across the country in an attempt to stop Congress from acting on surprise medical bills. I won’t be intimidated or deterred from fighting for NH families. My op-ed in the Union Leader: https://t.co/WtkfPU1nSH — PolitiTweet.org

Today, bipartisan funding legislation which I supported passed a key committee hurdle. These bills secure NH priorities & will provide resources to address the substance use disorder epidemic, support NH infrastructure and help rural small businesses become more energy efficient. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

While I'm pleased that @US_FDA is pursuing a criminal investigation into the causes of these illnesses, it's now more clear than ever that strong federal action is needed to stem the tide of this crisis. Congress must act now and pass legislation to protect Americans. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The number of victims of the vaping crisis continues to rise. At least 530 people from around the country have now suffered severe respiratory illness linked to vaping, including 7 deaths. This is a national health emergency. https://t.co/AhLwgG3D32 — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

It’s no coincidence that Wall Street firms have been flooding states, including NH, with dark money ads to derail these bipartisan efforts. Special interests won’t intimidate or deter me. I’ll always put NH first & keep working across the aisle to stop surprise medical billing. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

Surprise medical bills are becoming more prevalent and can cost patients thousands of dollars. That money could go toward groceries, rent, mortgages or savings but is being depleted by these bills. Congress should take action to put a stop to this unfair practice now. — PolitiTweet.org

As a teacher, Christa McAuliffe was passionate about promoting & expanding scientific knowledge. So pleased that my bipartisan bill creating a coin in her image to support STEM ed passed the House today & is headed to the President's desk. Urging @POTUS to sign it into law ASAP. — PolitiTweet.org

I’m proud to cosponsor this amendment and very relieved that we were able to reach an agreement on a bipartisan basis to help states bolster their election systems to deter interference. Elections are the bedrock of our democracy and Congress has a patriotic duty to protect them. — PolitiTweet.org

Sen. Jeanne Shaheen @SenatorShaheen

The President promised to drain the swamp, but is instead profiting from the tax dollars of hard-working Americans & their families. That’s why I cosponsored the HOTEL Act, legislation that would put an end to potential conflicts of interest & prevent the abuse of taxpayer funds. — PolitiTweet.org
