I fully support a woman's right to reproductive healthcare rights and freedoms
Individuals, families and people with disabilities need a hourly wage that provides the employee with a livable wage without overly burdening a employer with higher costs. A livable wage must be matched with truly affordable housing, increased funding for public schools including opportunities for free and reduced meals for children, reduced costs for energy, and the state meeting its obligations for cost sharing without downshifting to the local level.
I am co-sponsor of a bill for this session called the Partners in Housing Act that will provide opportunities for municipalities to partner with the State and developers in building workforce housing, specifically single-family starter homes, duplexes, small apartment buildings and other "missing middle" housing. The bill will ensure funding in existing, state-administered, affordable housing grant and loan programs through repayment of approved loans. It incentivizes development of underutilized municipal property into long-term affordable housing. It improves tax revenues for the municipalities that choose to take advantage of the program. It preserves local control for land use boards. And the bill is enabling legislation.
New Hampshire has a long history of providing free and safe voting opportunities where the results are trusted and secure. I will continue to reject any attempt to suppress free and fair elections including the use of artificial intelligence to propagate disinformation, partisan gerrymandering, and any attempt impose poll taxes by imposing mandates for proof of citizenship. I will continue to support training and education for election officials and volunteers. They are the backbone of our election process.
We must reduce our dependence upon fossil fuels and expand our use of solar, hydro and wind resources, and the net metering opportunities associated with those alternative energies, to allow families, businesses, schools, and municipalities to meet their generation needs. We must expand community power which allows customer generators to offset their remaining energy needs with community power. And we should embrace the NH Priority Climate Action Plan as blueprint for addressing climate change.
