Position on Issues

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2026

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?
"I do not support state (public) funding for private (non-public) schools. It erodes the independence of private education, insuring accountability to the state instead of to parents. Allow parents to change public school districts to find a better fit for their child and bring their education property tax money with them as we used to be allowed to do. It's better than state interference and regulation of private education."

Should New Hampshire allow at least 10% of students in each school district to enroll in a different public school, regardless of where they live?

"Historically, NH taxpayers could change districts by notifying the town clerk. It was allowed to respect our rights of conscience. These local decisions were managed without any state interference or funding as is being proposed today. It builds stronger communities when taxpayers fully support the instruction in their local public school. Parents don't need to complain endlessly in vain to their school board. They simply align with a district that they find favorable. It's a win-win for everyone."

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2026

Should New Hampshire repeal the ban on abortion after 24 weeks gestation?

"Against"

Citizens Count Issue Survey, 2026

Should state law cap how much local school districts can increase their budget each year?

Should NH pass stricter gun control laws?
