Senator Hassan Answers Questions in Windham from Small Business Leaders and Workers

WINDHAM – U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan participated in an event today hosted by the Southern New Hampshire Chamber of Commerce where she answered questions from small business leaders and workers. Granite State small business leaders asked about strengthening the local economy, reducing the deficit, and other priorities.  

“I appreciated hearing directly from New Hampshire’s small business leaders and workers about the challenges that they are facing, which have been made worse by the Trump Administration’s reckless and chaotic actions,” said Senator Hassan. “Small businesses are the backbone of New Hampshire’s economy, and I will continue to work to get small businesses the support that they need, including relief from President Trump’s recklessly broad tariffs.”  

Senator Hassan has a record of supporting small businesses. Senator Hassan recently reintroduced bipartisan legislation to cut taxes for small businesses with fewer than 10 employees that create retirement accounts for their employees. She has stood up to the Trump Administration’s reckless tariffs that are raising costs on Granite State families and small businesses – which are also making it difficult for businesses to plan for the future. Senator Hassan has also been a leader in advocating for the full restoration of the research & development tax deduction so that businesses in the United States can continue to outcompete China.
