It was great to see so many local leaders and residents who make the North Country such an incredible place to live, work, and raise a family! It has been an honor to represent this region over the past 12 years and ensure that the North Country has a seat at the table in Washington.

I'll always fight for our first responders and law enforcement.

Our police officers, firefighters, and paramedics put themselves in harm’s way every day to keep our communities safe and healthy—it’s essential they have the resources to do their jobs safely.

It was great to visit the Lincoln Police Department and see firsthand how the resources I helped secure will allow the community to build a new, state-of-the-art facility, improving day-to-day operations and the safety of our first responders.

When we invest in our local communities, our entire state feels the benefits.

It was wonderful meeting with local leaders in Whitefield to see how the town is benefiting from federal resources to revitalize the downtown area and support investments in health care services and other community projects.

From growing the town’s affordable housing stock to expanding health care services and renovating vital community spaces like the town library, these projects represent the positive impact empowering our local communities has on our state.

Gorham's new Community Learning Center will help set children and parents up for success!

Access to child care is critical to supporting hard-working families, their communities, and our economy—we need to treat child care like the essential service it is.

It was great visiting Gorham to discuss the town's plans to expand its child care facility. The new Gorham Community Learning Center will allow the town to provide quality, affordable child care to an additional 60 families, and I'm looking forward to seeing the positive impact this new facility will have on the broader community.

Every life lost to addiction and overdose is a tragedy.

Having grown up in New Hampshire and spending my summers kayaking and winters skiing, I know firsthand that outdoor recreation and winter sports are cornerstones of our New Hampshire economy and Granite State way of life.

I have been proud to work closely with organizations like the Appalachian Mountain Club (AMC) during my time in Congress to support these vital industries that help grow our economy and ensure New Hampshire’s great outdoors are protected and preserved for future generations to experience and enjoy.

I'm proud to stand with New Hampshire's labor brothers and sisters!

Happy Labor Day, New Hampshire: Workers are the backbone of America. From establishing the 40-hour work week to strengthening child labor laws and workplace safety standards, the labor movement has played a vital role in enshrining the benefits and protections hardworking families have earned and deserve. 

Today and every day, we honor their contributions to our nation and recommit to protecting workers.

I hope you have a safe and wonderful weekend!

Be bold, be brave, be kind.

Sincerely,

Annie
