“We need Term Limits because career politicians like Joe Biden, Chuck Schumer and Maggie Hassan serve only their own political futures, not the people they were elected to represent. Senator Hassan aligns herself with her party bosses – voting 98% of the time with Chuck Schumer and 96% of the time with Bernie Sanders – to advance her political career at the expense of Granite Staters.”

• "Bar any federal legislation, any spending bill, that would increase inflation year-over-year until inflation is under 4.5%, as proposed by Sen. Tim Scott.
• "Reinstitute the original Gramm-Rudman-Hollings Balanced Budget and Emergency Deficit Control Act, which placed the first binding spending constraints on the federal budget."

In an interview with NHPR, Smith said, "You know, I would have to look at any individual piece of legislation. I'd have to read it to see what's in it before I would say I would vote on anything federally. I do think this matter is probably best left to the states. It's why I agreed with the Dobbs decision. And look, the people of New Hampshire will now have a voice in how they want to handle abortion going forward."

However, when asked about a 24-week abortion ban at the federal level, similar to the New Hampshire law, in a WMUR debate, Smith said, "Yes, I would support that."

"I do believe in giving them [Ukraine] the equipment they need and the training they need to fight this war themselves. I do not believe in having boots on the ground there. But at the same time we do have an outside interest in this, in making sure that Putin doesn't win this."

"The Jones Act, which was established 100 years ago, now has entirely crippled shipping operations and increased costs for the entire US and its territories. It is time to take off the shackles and allow foreign flag vessels to ship fuel and supplies more efficiently with huge savings to taxpayers."

"[This] socialist proposal does not eliminate student debt, it just forces everyone else to pay for it. There is no reason for a tradesman who didn’t attend college to subsidize the degrees of lawyers with high incomes, or any of the vastly more questionable degrees offered that fail to prepare students for the workforce."
