"Public schools should be for teaching kids how to think, not what to think. We need to get back to basics—reading, writing, arithmetic, science, geography, and history. We cannot allow history to be taught a certain way to fit a political agenda.
"Our schools are supposed to be places where our families come together and build their communities. We must not let critical race theory, and the attitudes that flow from it, turn our classrooms into centers of division and resentment."

"I will stand strong in defense of our economic security, fight the socialist spending spree that Pappas-Pelosi-Biden are forcing on us, work to keep taxes low on our families and small businesses, and ensure that America will always stand tall."Against| Read My Position

"In New Hampshire, we honor our men and women in uniform. But in Congress, Chris Pappas has refused to condemn the extremist “Defund the Police” movement, which treats cops like criminals and criminals like victims. Our brave men and women in uniform have asked us to defend qualified immunity. Chris Pappas has worked to strip them of this important protection.
" Far from defunding the police, we owe our law enforcement the resources they need to do the job we ask them to do. They deserve the numbers, equipment, compensation, training, and moral support necessary to go out each day and take on the criminals."

"On the choice issue, she said, 'I totally support the law here in New Hampshire,' and, she said, she believes in states’ rights.
"'I believe any state has the right to pass any law they want,' Huff Brown said, referring to the Texas six-weeks abortion ban being challenged by the U.S. Justice Department. 'Here in New Hampshire, I think we have the right guidelines and the right laws.'
"She said she opposes partial birth abortions and federal funding for abortions."

"Plain and simple: no. Recent gun control measures have proposed additional restrictions on law abiding gun owners, such as red flag laws, which are ripe for abuse. As a proud gun owner, I will oppose any legislation that makes it harder for law abiding gun owners to defend themselves or exercise their constitutional rights."

"The [2020] election was truly a free-for-all, and we can’t have that happen again. We have to be so diligent about the next election and making sure that we have voter ID, that there’s transparency, that people show up in person in order to cast their ballot."Against| Read My Position

"Healthcare should be affordable and accessible to all. Obamacare promised us more affordable health care, but instead we have gotten the opposite. As insurance premiums continue to skyrocket, Democrats in Washington want to continue down the path of socialized medicine, with government expansion into the health care system by way of Biden’s Build Back Better — a bill supported by Chris Pappas.
"I have seen first-hand the effects that socialized medicine had on a country. From outdated medical practices to long waiting lines and rationed care, socialized medicine puts our health into the hands of bureaucrats when it should be in the hands of doctors and patients.
"Now more than ever, it is vital that we foster competition in a patient-centered, market-based healthcare system. By driving competition and bringing more transparency to healthcare pricing, we can lower costs, encourage innovation, and improve quality and access. When it comes to lowering prescription drug prices, competition is vital."

"We must secure our borders. It is our sacred obligation. We need to finish the wall, fund the technology, and hire border agents to stop attempted crossings."
