Team,

I have much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Today I am thinking of my friends, family, this incredible team, our community, and the opportunity of a lifetime you all have given me: The chance to serve as your voice in Congress for a third term.

To everyone who donated, volunteered, and cast their vote in the midterm elections: Thank you. You’ve been by my side from the start, and I wouldn’t be here if it weren’t for your belief in me and your commitment to our shared values.

While we're celebrating the holiday season, we can’t forget those who are struggling.

Earlier this week I visited Gather Pantry's Cooking 4 Community kitchen at Great Bay Community College in Portsmouth to help package meals made from leftovers from Thanksgiving dinners.

Should you, your family, or a neighbor need assistance putting food on the table throughout the holidays, you can find the nearest food bank here.

If you and your family are able, donate to the New Hampshire Food Bank or a local food bank in your area. For every dollar donated, the NH Food Bank can provide approximately 2 meals to a neighbor in need.

However you're celebrating this year, I hope you and your loved ones have a happy and safe Thanksgiving.

Thank you,

Chris
