this could be historic

Chris Pappas for NH             Team, People frequently ask Chris what it's like representing a district Trump won in 2016. But that's not what Chris thinks about our district. He thinks about the Granite Staters who need good-paying jobs, quality education f…

We’re up against Koch Brothers and GOP Big Money

Hi there, the Koch brothers’ operation is attacking me for protecting good, union jobs and standing up for Granite State families. That’s a fight I’ll take on any day of the week. GOP special interests groups and corporate PACs will do whatever they need to do to make me a one-term cong…

Trump and Pence are in NH

Friends,   President Trump is at a campaign rally here in Manchester right now. VP Pence held his rally earlier this afternoon.   We’re not surprised that Trump has made our district a top priority, but hosting rallies on the eve of our first-in-the-nation primary is proof that his top G…
