2020

On April 15, 2020, the Trump administration invited Hassan to join a bipartisan task force on the reopening of the economy amid the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic.

2019

In 2019, former Hassan staffers Jackson Cosko and Samantha Davis pleaded guilty to federal crimes. Cosko pleaded guilty to five felonies; following his termination from Hassan's staff, he illegally accessed Senate computers, obtained personal information about five Republican senators, and disseminated that personal information online because he was angry about the senators' roles in the confirmation of Brett Kavanaugh to the Supreme Court of the United States. In June 2019, Cosko was sentenced to four years in prison. Davis pleaded guilty to two misdemeanors in July 2019, acknowledging that she had given Cosko access to Hassan's Senate office after he was fired and that she had lied to investigators about it.

In July 2019, Hassan cosponsored the Fallen Journalists Memorial Act, a bill introduced by Ben Cardin and Rob Portman that would create a new memorial that would be privately funded and constructed on federal lands within Washington, D.C. in order to honor journalists, photographers, and broadcasters that have died in the line of duty.

2018

On the evening of June 19, 2018, a congressional intern was caught on video yelling, “Mr. President, Fuck You”, as President Trump walked through the United States Capitol for a meeting with Republican congressmen. On June 25, Hassan's office confirmed that a Hassan intern, Caitlin Marriott, was the person caught on video swearing at the President. A Hassan spokesperson confirmed that Marriott had been suspended from her position for one week and was required to return her congressional intern ID badge. Hassan refused demands that she terminate Marriott.

In March 2018, Hassan was one of ten senators to sign a letter to Chairman of the United States Senate Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Lamar Alexander and ranking Democrat Patty Murray requesting they schedule a hearing on the causes and remedies of mass shootings in the wake of the Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.

Hassan was endorsed by the pro-choice Democratic political action committee EMILY's List, which also backed her two gubernatorial runs. Hassan endorsed Hillary Clinton during the 2016 Democratic presidential primary. Hassan has said climate change and reproductive rights would be her top priorities if she were elected to the Senate.

On November 9, 2016, the afternoon following Election Day, Hassan was declared the winner. Ayotte conceded later that evening, choosing not to pursue a recount.

Hassan has a "D" rating from the National Rifle Association (NRA) due to her rare support for pro-gun legislation. She also supports a background check system to avoid gun sales to the mentally ill. She was supported by Gabrielle Giffords and Michael Bloomberg in the 2016 election.

2015

In July 2015, Hassan vetoed a bill that would have removed the licensing requirement for carrying concealed firearms in the state.
