Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2022
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 NH add a broad-based sales tax?
"We need to live within our means, and currently have a balanced, diversified revenue stream. Adding a broad-based sales tax will hurt the regional competitiveness of NH and consequently our ability to attract and retain high paying jobs."

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 New Hampshire government do more to address climate change?
"Climate change over the past 1,000 years is a series of cycles. Greenland was farmed by the Vikings in 980, the Medieval Warm Period between 950 and 1250. Then we had the Little Ice Age from 1303 to 1850. Now we're back to a warming period. 10,000 years ago we were in an ice age. These long term cycles are driven by astronomical phenomena such as the changing distance from the earth to the sun (elliptical orbit) tilt of the earth to the sun (precession) and sunspot cycle (11 years) among others There are many higher priority problems to use with our tax dollars. China and India are the main polluters, and we are already very effective in controlling emissions. We are at the point of diminishing returns."

Should the state do more to encourage municipalities to remove zoning barriers to housing development?

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."
