Do you support the “Education Freedom Account” program, which gives students access to the per-pupil share of state school funding to spend on private school or home school expenses?

"Because all children are not the same and may learn differently or benefit from a different atmosphere, this allows students of lesser means to have the opportunities that more advantaged families have to send their children to a school of their choice."

I do not believe that we should legalize simply to generate new revenue for the state."

Should New Hampshire raise the minimum wage?

"There is no need for the legislation of a wage as the employer and employee are meant to come to a mutually agreed upon number based on their preferences. It is clear at this time that the employer can demand a wage well above the minimum wage as workers are relatively scarce compared to the number of open jobs. A minimum wage always leads to lower employment as it excludes those who would be freely willing to work for a lower wage to gain experience in hopes of higher wages after gaining that experience. This usually means the youngest or least experienced cannot gain experience."
