U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Ranking Member of the Joint Economic Committee, today called for Capital One to provide more information to Congress about the company’s decision to close multiple bank accounts connected to President Donald Trump for anti-money laundering reasons. As detailed in a court filing earlier this summer, the account closures stemmed from an internal Capital One investigation that identified “suspicious transactions” in line with “Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing ‘Red Flags.’” This comes amidst current and long-standing money laundering issues connected to Trump: For instance, Trump recently pardoned a former CEO – who had been convicted of enabling money laundering that funneled funds to terrorists and sex traffickers – who has been crucial to the success of the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial crypto business.

The U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee - Minority released a new analysis today which finds that, at the end of 2025,President Donald Trump held as much as $45.6 million in oil and gas stocks, a portfolio that is now worth up to $61.1 million given the sky-high oil and gas profits and stock prices tied to Trump’s war in Iran. And in just the first three months of 2026 – a period that covers both the U.S. operation in Venezuela and the start of the Iran War – the Committee found that Trump bought as much as $3.6 million in additional oil and gas stocks.

U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH) has launched a new effort to combat the growing threat of superbugs – bacteria or fungi resistant to standard antibiotics. The U.S. Congress Joint Economic Committee - Minority issued a report today on the cost of superbugs – also called antimicrobial resistance – to the overall health care system, finding that outbreaks can cost approximately $5.7 billion when accounting for medical personnel, equipment, and the space necessary to treat patients. Additionally, Senator Hassan is today introducing the bipartisan Stop Superbugs Act with Senator Roger Marshall (R-KS), which would formally authorize and further focus the efforts of a National Institutes of Health (NIH) working group in order to help facilitate clinical trials for new antibiotics to mitigate the growing threat of antimicrobial resistance.

U.S. Senator Maggie Hassan (D-NH), Ranking Member of the Joint Economic Committee, today pressed Sado Capital, a real estate investment firm, on the impacts of its business practices on residents of manufactured housing communities in New Hampshire.
