My opponent believes the 2020 election was stolen and spreads the lies that led to the deadly 1/6 insurrection.
I'm committing to accept the results of the 2022 election.
That shouldn't be newsworthy, but it is necessary when some work to undermine our democracy.

Let's take a moment to thank
@RepSheaPorter
for her 8 remarkable years of service in Congress. She always stood up for meaningful change and never let Washington change her. I know she will continue to be a crucial voice for progress into the future.

In the last few months alone:
✅ We took on the NRA and won.
✅ We took on China and won.
✅ We took on Big Pharma and won.
✅ We took on Big Oil and won.
I'll never stop fighting to put New Hampshire's interests ahead of the special interests.
