When @joekellynh keeps supporting @cole4nh without an official endorsement!
Breaking News @joekellynh seems to be supporting @cole4nh for Congress, very little posts for @HollieforNH just one day before the election! #votecole
Besieged congressional candidate Brian Cole calls @NewHampJournal reporters liars one day before primary day election. Says he is staying in the race and will win it. Doesn’t mention which race, congressional or the write in campaign he’s waging for state rep.
Thanks for the support! I truly appreciate it.

I am Honored to receive the first ever Michael Yakubovich Award for my work on Right to Try.
Thank you to Michael’s family for being part of this. It truly means a lot.
As I run for reelection, I’m grateful for the trust you have placed in me. I’m not done fighting for NH.

Tell me your thoughts about illegal immigration. Is this disqualifying?
Anthony DiLorenzo is running in a Republican primary, but his stance on illegal immigrants, let in by the Biden administration raises a serious question: Is he actually a Republican?
Seeing smiles and celebration over ending an unborn life is heartbreaking.
Every child deserves a chance at life.
And just think, if these laws had been in place when you were in the womb, would you be here today?
A blue state just legalized abortion up until birth.
Surrounded by applauding women, Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey signed a sweeping abortion bill Monday that removes the state’s gestational age limit, giving health care providers greater discretion to perform abortions later in pregnancy.
The law replaces the state’s previous general restriction on abortions after 24 weeks, with limited exceptions, and is set to take effect in 90 days.
Massachusetts becomes the 10th state to remove gestational age limits on abortion, according to the report.

Today I moderated this @theA4LI panel featuring several biotechs who are already using qualified state therapeutics access regimes such as Florida's Stem Cell Access law to bring treatment to patients, and others who are launching under Montana's Right to Try law shortly.
We were also joined by @cole4nh and @KesselringSteve from the NH government, to discuss the future of their state's Right to Try programs.
These state level pathways are critical to provide scalable patient access. Federal Right to Try and Expanded Access are important, but no single system is perfect, and inevitably patients fall through the cracks. Now, the states are there to step up and catch them when they do.
If you're a biotech wanting to learn more about coming to Montana starting this July, my DMs are open!

Republicans proudly stood up for patients by expanding the Michael Yakubovich and John Lewicke Right to Try Act.
Hear from Rep. Steven Kesselring (R-Manchester) about our fight to deliver much-needed hope to Granite Staters in today's @UnionLeader

I’m proud that New Hampshire once again ranks #1 for child wellbeing!
I thank the parents, educators, health care providers, state leaders, and everyone who helped make this possible, and I know we will continue working together to ensure an even brighter future for families.

RFK Jr. kicks off expanded Lyme awareness and research program at N.H. State House with survivors, clinicians, lawmakers. "We want patients diagnosed earlier, treated faster and connected with care that improves their lives." #nhpolitics
Honored to meet Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. at the State House today and hear about new efforts to combat Lyme disease. This is an important issue for New Hampshire and communities across the country. Encouraging to see greater attention being given to research, prevention.

.@NHSpeaker on Senate rejecting last week expanded Right to Try Act. "The Senate declined to pursue this legislation, turning down billions of dollars of economic activity and shutting down the expansion of health and wellness pathways for every Granite Stater." #nhpolitics
I was saddened to hear of the passing of Michael Yakubovich. I met him through the fight for Right to Try HB701 last year.
He was a true inspiration, and for that and so many other reasons, we named the bill after him.
I’m praying for his family during this difficult time.

The sun came out in Manchester today, and we had a wonderful time at the Manchester Memorial Day Parade.
It was great to see the mayor and the governor marching alongside so many veterans who have served our nation with honor. I was truly grateful for the opportunity to participate and to meet so many people in such a short time.
Today was a meaningful reminder of the patriotism, sacrifice, and community spirit that make New Hampshire so special.
Memorial Day is a reminder that freedom is never free. Today, we honor the countless American heroes who made the ultimate sacrifice for our nation.
I’m praying for their loved ones and every Family’s who gave everything so we could live free.
God Bless America. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

The NH Senate has again rejected Right to Try, shutting the door on patients seeking experimental treatments. A few state senators have decided that New Hampshire is closed for business to biotech firms offering frontier therapies.
Here's what happened and our next steps.
This term, a bipartisan majority of the state House passed HB 1734 and HB 1735: two bills to make New Hampshire the best state in America for experimental therapies. The bills were based largely on existing laws in Montana and Florida.
Granite Bio Innovation—and the businesses and patients we support—helped build a coalition across every branch of elected state government to support these bills. We also worked for several months to build consensus in the Senate. Senators received calls from patients, businesses, investors, scientists, and healthcare providers supporting the bills.
After Senator David Rochefort requested a long list of changes to HB 1734, the biotech firms involved agreed to every change. But these negotiations were not in good faith. Senator Rochefort abruptly decided he would not accept any version of the bills, and the Senate rejected both.
The New Hampshire House then attached both bills to Senate Bill 504—this time with an even broader bipartisan vote of 197 to 145. Rather than negotiate a compromise, the Senate decided to fight this bill at any cost.
Sadly, there is no pathway for making New Hampshire a commercial-scale hub for experimental therapies until the composition of the NH Senate changes.
Until then, Granite Bio Innovation will continue to support New Hampshire's patients and innovators in the following ways:
• Shaping other areas of state legislation in a way that facilitates frontier biotechnology in New Hampshire.
• Advocating for state and federal regulatory policy that allows New Hampshire's biotech ecosystem to flourish.
• Serving as a nexus for innovators and pro-biotech policymakers, including through an annual conference in August and by providing resources to healthcare providers.
We are grateful to the many New Hampshire officials who have embraced the state's promise as a biotech hub, including @NHHouseGOP leadership, Governor @KellyAyotte, Mayor @JayRuais, and those senators who supported Right to Try on the Senate floor.
We are especially grateful to @NHSpeaker for sponsoring the amendment to SB 504 and to Representatives @KesselringSteve and @cole4nh for their tireless leadership on these bills and courageous stand for patients in need.
With a biotech revolution approaching, a US state will soon become a hub for experimental therapies. The only question now is which one.
We fought in the house this year to save lives and give people with rare diseases real a chance. @KellyAyotte supported these efforts, instead of fighting for patients, jobs, and innovation, our state senators are pushing companies and opportunity right out of our state.
The plot thickens. Senate just killed bill (SB 504) which the House added onto expanding Right to Try Act and legalizing experimental bills. Why? The Senate had tacked underlying bill on pharmacy dispensing onto another (HB 194). Your move, NH House. #nhpolitics
