What these lines mean

These lines come from this official’s entry in the Congressional Directory, which Congress publishes. Each member’s office supplies or approves its entry. We save our own copy and sort each part of the entry by fixed rules. No AI is used.

Previous profession lists the work the entry names outside public office, in the Directory’s own words. Public office here means an elected or appointed position, staff work for an elected official or a legislature, and party or campaign work.

Lifelong politician means: Congress’s biography lists no occupation outside public office. It also means the entry lists no military service. A person on our side confirms these words before they appear.

Years in public office counts elected and appointed positions only. Staff work and party work are left out. Each year counts once.

Confirmed from the official record

This record covers laws that passed. Votes on bills that did not become law are not included yet.

The record in plain language

Of the 118 laws passed since January 3, 2025, 38 came to a recorded vote in the Senate while Hassan is a member. The rest passed the Senate by voice vote or without objection, which records no individual votes.

Hassan votes Yes on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention, the HALT Fentanyl Act, the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar), the defense policy law for fiscal year 2026 and the 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act.

On funding the government, Hassan votes Yes on the November 2025 law that ended the 43-day shutdown; the January 2026 funding law for science, energy, Interior and the EPA; the February 2026 funding law for a further group of agencies; and the September 2026 funding extension, and No on the March 2025 full-year funding law.

Hassan votes No on the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the 2025 tax and spending law; the Rescissions Act of 2025, which cancelled about $9 billion in approved spending; the Secure America Act, a 2026 budget law; and the Russia and Iran sanctions law.

Congress cancelled 24 federal rules by recorded vote in the Senate in that time. Hassan votes to cancel 0 and against cancelling 24.

Hassan votes differently from most Senate Democrats on 5 of 38 Yes and No votes: No on the Russia and Iran sanctions law, Yes on the February 2026 funding law for a further group of agencies, Yes on the November 2025 law that ended the 43-day shutdown, Yes on the GENIUS Act on stablecoins (digital tokens pegged to the dollar) and Yes on the Laken Riley Act on immigration detention.

  1. Senator Hassan Presses Big Pharma Company on Anti-Competitive Practices that Boost Profits at the Expense of Cancer Patients

    “However, due to changes Congressional Republicans implemented through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) could not include Keytruda in the third cycle of the Medicare Prescription Drug Price Negotiation Program in January 2026. As a result, patients will not receive the same cost savings that Medicare price negotiation has achieved for other”
