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?
"The EFA program was promoted dishonestly as inexpensive and an aid to the poor. It has proven extraordinarily expensive and constitutes a massive transfer of wealth from working class taxpayers to parents of children already in private or religious schools."

Do you support New Hampshire’s current system of public school funding, with about two-thirds of total funding coming from local property taxes?
"I disfavor taxing my senior citizen neighbors on fixed incomes out of their homes. Better to have the State fund public education with strong local control."

Should New Hampshire raise the minimum wage?
"The income of a person working full time at minimum wage is below poverty level. When I worked my way through college some fifty years ago, 60 hours a week at minimum wage was barely enough for college tuition. It isn't now. I favor an increase reflecting rises in the cost of living since the Federal minimum wage was set some decades ago."
