Position on Issues

Candidate's Website, 2024

" Money is diverted from an already grossly underfunded education system to private &/or religious schools via Education Freedom Accounts (EFAs), the cost of which has ballooned to $28M this year ($73M in total over 4 yrs). The EFA (aka Voucher] program is poorly audited, has lower teacher requirements and often has a reduced curriculum."

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Should New Hampshire ban abortions during the first trimester (e.g. after 6 weeks gestation)?

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Should New Hampshire ban abortions during the second trimester (e.g. after 15 weeks gestation)?

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Should NH add an income tax on earned income?

Should NH add a broad-based sales tax?

Candidate's Website, 2024

"What about phased out reductions to the business enterprise tax for small or start-up businesses?"

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2024

Should New Hampshire add a tax on capital gains?

Candidate's Website, 2024

"Extreme weather events are no longer rare. They affect our health, destroy property, contaminate our environment and negatively affect business profitability and our state’s economy.  Yet the legislature defeated numerous bills that sought to mitigate these problems.

"I would work to transition the NH fleet to electric vehicles (EVs), incentivize EV purchases, allow Salem to adopt more energy efficient building codes and standards, expand and better reimburse “net metering”, restrict single use plastic."

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Do you support giving voters who register without ID on Election Day a ballot that only counts if they return identifying documents to the state before a deadline?

Candidate's Website, 2024

"The lack of affordable housing and rental units is a serious, complex and highly emotional issue. Even the definitions of workforce and affordable housing are problematic.

"We need to gather and listen to ALL the stakeholders and those affected by this crisis.  And ALL need to participate in the “solutions”.  One size does not fit all.  Sound, equitable strategies and solutions will take a lot of time, good will and coordination among federal, state and local governments, agencies and communities.  It will require “thinking outside the box”!  

"Allowing attached accessory dwelling units (ADUs) to existing homes is a good, small start.

"Conversion of empty retail and office space is another option.    Much more is needed."

Candidate's Website, 2024

"NH’s lack of a diverse energy policy (basically reliant on fossil fuels) results in higher electricity costs. There is also resistance to net metering – giving credits to homeowners who put solar generated energy back into the system.  Towns can lower homeowners’ and small businesses’ energy costs by purchasing electricity in bulk from suppliers (e.g., Community Power)." 

Candidate's Website, 2024

"Abortion – absolutizing the right to life or choice does not address the social and moral complexity of this issue. It shouldn’t be banned when the life of the mother is at stake or the pregnancy is the result of violence, but outside of those situations, who speaks for and protects the rights of the developing human life?"

Candidate's Website, 2024

"Paid family and sick leave would go a long way in fostering healthy and strong NH families.  Also, affordable childcare would help breadwinners in a family of four meet the average $124,000 cost of living in Rockingham County."

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Do you support New Hampshire’s current system of public school funding, with about two-thirds of total funding coming from local property taxes?

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Should New Hampshire legalize the recreational use of marijuana by allowing home-growing and private use without sales?

"Does legalizing cannabis create as many problems as it’s touted to solve?"

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022

Should New Hampshire legalize the recreational use of marijuana by establishing state-run cannabis stores?

Candidate's Website, 2024

"Workers need a livable wage (since 2009 the federal minimum wage is still $7.25 an hour!). They also need the right to collective bargaining for a reasonable share in the business profits their labors created."

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2024

Should New Hampshire add legal protections for residents of other states who travel here for health care related to abortion or gender transition?

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022
