“I am pleased President Obama recognized a terrific New Hampshire program that has helped our students explore the possibilities of cutting-edge technology,” said Congressman Hodes. “A firm understanding of science, technology, engineering, and math will continue to be a key to success for Granite State students. My plan to provide support for FIRST and other educational programs will expand these opportunities to even more students in New Hampshire and across the country.”
“As Granite Staters prepare to travel across the country to visit their friends and family for the holidays, we must do everything we can to prevent unnecessary delays,” said Congressman Paul Hodes. “Allowing commercial flights to use military airspace increases on-time arrivals, saves fuel, and decreases the time that families will have to spend in long lines and crowded airports. Especially in light of recent computer glitches that caused delays in the Granite State, I strongly urge the President to open this airspace and provide relief for folks traveling to and from New Hampshire.”
“New Hampshire seniors have the right to see the doctor they wish to see,” said Congressman Hodes. “This plan will keep doctors’ offices open to provide the care that Medicare beneficiaries need. As we continue to work towards meaningful health insurance reform, I remain committed to expanding choice, lowering costs, and putting Granite Staters back in control of their health care. Fixing the way that Medicare pays physicians is a critical piece of that plan.”
