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?
"School choice is essential for parents, who know what's best for their kids. They should individually decide where their school funding goes, whether it's the local public school, a private school, or home school, among others. I went to public schools for 12 years, then to private colleges."

Should New Hampshire ban abortions during the first trimester (e.g. after 6 weeks gestation)?
"I am pro life. It's my choice. Others who choose differently can make the short drive across the Massachusetts border to exercise their choice. I choose to go to Massachusetts for specialized health care all the time. It's not a big deal."

Should New Hampshire lower business taxes?
"Our recent tax law changes to reduce the business profits tax (BPT) and business enterprise tax (BET) have actually raised more tax revenue by stimulating the economy. We should continue to make regular, modest reductions in these business taxes."

Should the state do more to encourage municipalities to remove zoning barriers to housing development?
"We have a law in place to permit accessory dwellings statewide. That should be sufficient. The state should tread lightly on regulating municipalities."

Do you support legislation to expand the net energy metering system capacity cap from 1 MW to 5 MW for all residential and commercial customers in New Hampshire?
On the 2020 Citizens Count Survey Ohm wrote, "Net energy metering is a subsidy and should be erealed, not extended."

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

Should New Hampshire legalize the recreational use of marijuana by allowing home-growing and private use without sales?
"We already have a well-known drug problem in NH. Legalizing an additional drug for recreational use tears at the fabric of our society. Colorado and other states that have followed this path are dealing with increased crime and dependency. Those who want weed can cross the border into Massachusetts. It's a short drive. Please sober up before you come back not not injure anyone on our highways."

Should NH pass stricter gun control laws?
"We have constitutional carry and are a low crime state. Criminals don't obey gun laws. Stricter gun laws will only hurt the law-abiding who may, unfortunately, find themselves in a life or death situation that requires appropriate self defense."
