Former Massachusetts GOP Sen. Scott Brown is making another run for Senate in New Hampshire.

Brown attempted a Senate run in New Hampshire in 2014, following his tenure in the Senate representing Massachusetts from 2010 to 2013. After his unsuccessful bid in New Hampshire, Brown was appointed as President Donald Trump’s ambassador to New Zealand and Samoa during Trump’s first term.

Brown touted his background in his launch video, also saying, “Like a lot of you, I’m worried about where the country is headed.”

“New Hampshire is a wonderful place for living, working, and raising a family,” Brown remarked. “We’ve had the fortune of being led by two outstanding governors: Chris Sununu and Kelly Ayotte. However, our representation in Washington has been lacking.”

Brown then took direct aim at Democratic Rep. Chris Pappas, who is running for Senate to replace retiring Democratic Sen. Jeanne Shaheen.

“Over the past four years, Chris Pappas has aligned with Joe Biden as he has opened the border, increased living costs, and made life generally unaffordable,” Brown commented.

Brown also praised Trump, saying, “He sealed the border, he stood up to China, and he restored our standing in the world,” showing an image of Trump in the Situation Room taken as Trump authorized strikes against Iran.

Pappas responded to Brown’s announcement, saying in a statement that Brown “stands with corporate special interests, supports efforts to strip away health care coverage from tens of thousands of Granite Staters, and backs President Trump’s reckless tariffs that New Hampshire small businesses are speaking out against every single day.”

“While Scott Brown looks for yet another opportunity to do Wall Street’s bidding and blindly support President Trump and his agenda, I’ll always put New Hampshire first,” Pappas added.

The open seat race could be competitive next year. Former Vice President Kamala Harris won the state by 3 percentage points in 2024.
