Washington, D.C. – Heat or eat. That is the very real decision facing Granite Staters this winter, and it’s all thanks to the failed energy policies of Joe Biden and Maggie Hassan.
Hassan’s Anti-Energy Votes Will Leave Families Broke And Cold
By: Chris Ager
I’VE LIVED in New Hampshire for more than 30 years and never before have I seen a politician so out of touch with constituents as Sen. Maggie Hassan.
As Joe Biden’s rubber stamp, Hassan has hurt Granite Staters time and again with her reckless spending. Now in October, we’re facing a winter crisis ahead as the price of heating oil starts to rise again, thanks to politicians like Hassan.
Hassan supported Biden’s anti-American energy agenda every step of the way, voting with Biden more than 96% of the time. We can’t afford a senator who will sell out our interests to help pass Biden’s extreme agenda.
Hassan is a Biden Democrat who has allowed this crisis to occur, while failing to deliver results for New Hampshire residents struggling under historic Bidenflation. Amid rising costs for basic groceries, school supplies for our kids, and gas for our cars, Hassan has left us out in the cold. In 2021 alone, she voted against the crucial Keystone XL pipeline on four separate occasions.
We saw gas prices rise to a record of $4.99 per gallon this past summer.
Sen. Hassan also led a group of Democrat senators to kill a Republican amendment in the recent Inflation Reduction Act (read Bidenflation Scam Bill) that would have eliminated a tax hike on crude oil. Not only did she have the gall to vote to make Americans pay more for gas, but then she tried to pull the wool over our eyes by introducing the same measure herself, knowing the Democratic caucus wouldn’t let it pass.
Maggie Hassan is not the moderate she appears. The extreme Biden-Hassan anti-energy agenda doesn’t end there. With more than 40% of New Hampshire households using fuel oil as their primary way to stay warm in winter, Granite Staters are going to feel the pinch of Democrats’ war on American energy. With average fuel oil prices already more than $4.60 per gallon before the winter months hit, our checkbooks will surely feel the pain of Hassan’s policy decisions soon.
