Mark Stoneman<p>Deeply disappointed in the votes of my two senators for cloture and for submitting to a GOP budget that will harm New Hampshire’s residents. Yes, we’re a purple state. No, they should not be putting their jobs ahead of the state’s residents, let alone democracy. <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/NH" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NH</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Shaheen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Shaheen</span></a> <a href="https://zirk.us/tags/Hassan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hassan</span></a></p>

Chuck Darwin<p>On Monday, the Senate armed services committee approved Pete <a href="https://c.im/tags/Hegseth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hegseth</span></a>’s nomination, <br>But he awaits confirmation by the full chamber.<br>In a joint statement, Elizabeth <a href="https://c.im/tags/Warren" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Warren</span></a>, Tim <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kaine" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kaine</span></a>, Mark <a href="https://c.im/tags/Kelly" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Kelly</span></a>, Mazie <a href="https://c.im/tags/Hirono" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hirono</span></a>, Richard <a href="https://c.im/tags/Blumenthal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Blumenthal</span></a>, Tammy <a href="https://c.im/tags/Duckworth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Duckworth</span></a>, Jeanne <a href="https://c.im/tags/Shaheen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Shaheen</span></a> and Kirsten <a href="https://c.im/tags/Gillibrand" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Gillibrand</span></a> <br>👉 demand meetings with Pete Hegseth before the full Senate votes on his confirmation:<br>The senator's joint statement reads:<br>"In a sworn statement under the penalty of perjury, a new report shows U.S. Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth was ‘erratic and aggressive’ toward his second wife over many years, to the point that she feared for her safety. <br>The report also details repeated instances of his drinking alcohol in excess, including the need to be dragged out of a strip club while in uniform. <br>This affidavit is part of a disturbing pattern of behavior that has been documented through numerous public and private reports. <br>The affidavit also raises additional questions about the thoroughness of his FBI background check during a rushed confirmation process.<br>Despite repeated requests, Mr. Hegseth has refused to meet with the vast majority of Democratic members of the Senate Armed Services Committee. <br>We request that Mr. Hegseth meet privately with every interested lawmaker on the committee before the Senate votes on his nomination <br>so that we can have frank discussions about the new information that has come to light. <br>It would be irresponsible and contrary to our constitutional duty for the Senate to vote to confirm this nomination before such meetings have occurred."</p>
