Carleigh Beriont
Running for: US House NH District 1
Beriont chairs the Hampton Select Board and teaches at the Harvard Kennedy School. A former union organizer and public school teacher, she is running on a platform that includes Medicare for All and fully funding public schools to deliver property-tax relief; raising the minimum wage; banning Congressional stock trading; and restoring Congressional war powers. "The real divide in this country is not between regular people," Beriont said. "It's between regular people and a system that doesn't serve us."
