Two years ago, I founded a health policy think tank built around the ideas that people should have more freedom to pursue their own health and well-being, and that physicians, entrepreneurs, etc., should have more freedom to build/produce/deliver the kinds of things that provide value to that end. If you're interested in how it's going, follow along.

AI is creating the reality that it has never been a better time to be an entrepreneur, a founder, etc. Freedom in NH is creating the reality that it has never been a better time to start or build innovation in NH. These two realities are going to change the world.
The US needs a new legal framework to accelerate frontier biotech innovation. We're building one here in New Hampshire—the only pro-innovation state adjacent to a first-class biotech hub.

I am Honored to receive the first ever Michael Yakubovich Award for my work on Right to Try. Thank you to Michael’s family for being part of this. It truly means a lot. As I run for reelection, I’m grateful for the trust you have placed in me. I’m not done fighting for NH.

Freedom Summit opens Granite Bio Innovation Day with an exciting presentation from EpiBone on how overcoming overly restrictive, outdated regulations allows us to grow bone and cartilage tissues right here in New Hampshire. One less grafting surgery means less reliance on opioid painkillers and faster healing. New Hampshire is the champion of medical freedom in all of New England.

I’ve been fighting to make New Hampshire the best place in the country for medical innovation and patient access. Thank you, Jim Mara, for sharing your personal story and reminding us why this fight matters. When I get to Congress, I will continue fighting for Right to Try, medical freedom, and giving patients more control over their own healthcare. Patients deserve hope. Patients deserve choices.

We're buying 100+ acres of land and developing it into an innovation district for entrepreneurs to live and work. It will be in New Hampshire and it's called Freedom Village. We're unveiling our plans for the first time at Freedom Summit Aug 20-21 where we will gather builders across science, energy, startups, AI, housing and community. Join us to live free and build the future in New Hampshire. Comment BUILD and I'll DM you the link. @jhitchco

At Power Hour this week: Rep @mdrew4nh showed us we need to think about the State Budget NOW, not later. Genesis Lung: “We weren’t meant to trash sick embryos, we were meant to fix them. Prenatal gene therapy is now a possibility.” Support right to try ❤️

.@NHSpeaker on Senate rejecting last week expanded Right to Try Act. "The Senate declined to pursue this legislation, turning down billions of dollars of economic activity and shutting down the expansion of health and wellness pathways for every Granite Stater." #nhpolitics

Sad to hear of former Rep. Michael Yakubovich’s passing. He inspired us all with his bravery and advocacy for fellow patients battling rare diseases. Joe and I are praying for Michael’s wife Marika, his family, and his friends and former colleagues.

As a NH legislator and MS warrior of 25 years, I was in full support of this bill. Those of us with debilitating chronic illness deserve to be given the opportunity to live a fuller life. We know the risks and are willing to accept them to lessen our suffering.
The NH Senate has again rejected Right to Try, shutting the door on patients seeking experimental treatments. A few state senators have decided that New Hampshire is closed for business to biotech firms offering frontier therapies. Here's what happened and our next steps. This term, a bipartisan majority of the state House passed HB 1734 and HB 1735: two bills to make New Hampshire the best state in America for experimental therapies. The bills were based largely on existing laws in Montana and Florida. Granite Bio Innovation—and the businesses and patients we support—helped build a coalition across every branch of elected state government to support these bills. We also worked for several months to build consensus in the Senate. Senators received calls from patients, businesses, investors, scientists, and healthcare providers supporting the bills. After Senator David Rochefort requested a long list of changes to HB 1734, the biotech firms involved agreed to every change. But these negotiations were not in good faith. Senator Rochefort abruptly decided he would not accept any version of the bills, and the Senate rejected both. The New Hampshire House then attached both bills to Senate Bill 504—this time with an even broader bipartisan vote of 197 to 145. Rather than negotiate a compromise, the Senate decided to fight this bill at any cost. Sadly, there is no pathway for making New Hampshire a commercial-scale hub for experimental therapies until the composition of the NH Senate changes. Until then, Granite Bio Innovation will continue to support New Hampshire's patients and innovators in the following ways: • Shaping other areas of state legislation in a way that facilitates frontier biotechnology in New Hampshire. • Advocating for state and federal regulatory policy that allows New Hampshire's biotech ecosystem to flourish. • Serving as a nexus for innovators and pro-biotech policymakers, including through an annual conference in August and by providing resources to healthcare providers. We are grateful to the many New Hampshire officials who have embraced the state's promise as a biotech hub, including @NHHouseGOP leadership, Governor @KellyAyotte, Mayor @JayRuais, and those senators who supported Right to Try on the Senate floor. We are especially grateful to @NHSpeaker for sponsoring the amendment to SB 504 and to Representatives @KesselringSteve and @cole4nh for their tireless leadership on these bills and courageous stand for patients in need. With a biotech revolution approaching, a US state will soon become a hub for experimental therapies. The only question now is which one.

We moved the conversation forward after a year of work in the House to advance these bills for patients suffering from rare diseases and to push forward the future of medical innovation. The Senate made the wrong decision today, choosing not to stand with patients and not to support the kind of breakthrough treatments that can save lives. As a campaign promise in my run for Congress, I will always fight for patients’ ability to live and for families to have real hope through access to breakthrough treatments, experimental options, and medical innovation that can change lives. I will not accept a system that leaves people waiting when time is not on their side. Every person deserves the chance to save their own life, and I will take that fight to Washington.
