  2. A day after Secretary Mattis resigned in protest, the US point person in the fight against ISIS resigned in response to the President’s Syria decision that he felt will threaten our national security. The threat posed by ISIS persists and it must be taken seriously.

  3. The President said he’d be “proud” to shut down the government and unfortunately here we are. On Wednesday all 100 senators supported a clean funding extension - a deal the President said he’d accept. I urge the President to come to the table now and end this shutdown.

  4. Students trying to get a higher education should not have to face the burdensome, complex web of red-tape that comes with applying for federal financial aid, and I’m pleased the Senate passed our bill this week to help simplify the process.

  5. This week the President signed into law legislation that will help keep Americans safe by making it easier for intelligence analysts to identify terrorist threats – I thank for working across the aisle with me to push this bill across the finish line.

  10. Gender discrimination and other challenges both big and small still exist for women serving in public office and in all types of jobs. We’ve come a long way but we can’t stop fighting to break down barriers for women to pursue their dreams.

  15. For years, small towns were inundated with millions more opioid pills than there were people, yet drug distribution companies turned a blind eye while reaping the profits. This is unacceptable and I will keep working to hold big pharma accountable.

  16. When wildfires raged in California, a New Hampshire family business stepped up to help. For their efforts, I'm proud to recognize the families behind Schilling Beer Co., as well as Head Brewer Chris Deapo, as the December Granite Staters of the Month.
