Justifying a $1.7 Trillion Omnibus

 What is worse, voting to pass a $1,7 Trillion, 4,000-plus page piece of legislation that he obviously did not read, or that same Congressman sending an email bragging about how he served his constituents by doing so?

  • Chris Pappas gaslighted Granite Staters with his "accomplishments" by signing the omnibus bill.
  • Securing Funding for Community-Driven Projects
  • Reducing energy costs
  • Fighting fentanyl trafficking
  • Supporting public safety
  • Improving veteran care
  • Investing in the workforce
  • Defining New Hampshire priorities
  • Financing infrastructure projects

Community College System of New Hampshire

  • Funding will be used to extend classrooms at the Susan Huard Advanced Technologies center to include an outdoor laboratory to better prepare graduates to meet the needs of a diversified workforce.
  • Saint Anselm College
  • $2,200,000. Why are taxpayers of America funding a facility on a private institution's property?

Support For Veterans

  • Three of my bipartisan veterans' bills were included in this package.
  • The VA Beneficiary Debt Collection Improvement Act will improve VA's debt collection process and protect veterans from undue financial strain; The VA Supply Chain Resiliency Act will strengthen VA supply chains and ensure our veterans receive the best possible medical care; and The Improving VA Accountability to Prevent Sexual Harassment and Discrimination Act aims to improve policies and oversight of how the VA addresses systemic issues of sexual harassment and discrimination.

Measures to Combat Drug Trafficking

  • Bipartisan legislation that I introduced alongside Congressman Newhouse extended emergency measures to address trafficking of fentanyl analogues through December 31, 2024 was also included in the package.
  • This legislation will ensure that law enforcement retains the tools they need to seize fentanyl-related substances and combat drug trafficking.
