February 25, 2026

Manchester, NH – Bill O’Brien, Republican National Committeeman for New Hampshire, released the following statement after President Trump delivered his State of the Union address:

“President Trump’s State of the Union highlighted real results that are being felt here in New Hampshire and across the country,” said O’Brien. “His achievements, particularly in the face of reflexive and too often thoughtless Democratic opposition, are significant and undeniable.

Lower inflation and reduced energy costs are helping Granite State families keep more of what they earn, while a stronger economy is supporting our small businesses and manufacturers. The President’s commitment to securing the border, restoring law and order, and standing up for American workers reflects the values New Hampshire residents believe in. Nationwide crime is at a historic low, a reduction driven in large part by a stronger enforcement of immigration laws that is opposed by those who showed when asked during the speech that they put their concerns for illegal aliens above the safety of Americans.

While others focus on political theater, President Trump continues to deliver outcomes that matter. His America First agenda is working, and tonight’s address made clear that the future for New Hampshire and the nation is bright with President Trump and Republicans at the helm.”
