Should New Hampshire ban abortions during the first trimester (e.g. after 6 weeks gestation)?
"Neonatal care has improved viability for fetuses delivered as early as 24 weeks because of life threatening complications of pregnancy. A 2026 study in the American Journal of Public Health showed a 9.2% increase in pregnancy-related deaths in the 14 states that have passed strict abortion bans since the Dobbs decision in 2022. In the first year following the strict ban in Texas, maternal mortality rose by 56%. Deaths from ectopic pregnancies, which are nonviable, doubled between 2020 and 2025. The steepest rise in maternal mortality occurred in states with the strictest bans beginning at 6 weeks gestation, where confusion over legal issues led to delays in emergency care."Against| Read My Position

Should New Hampshire require new voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate or passport, when registering to vote?

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?
"I oppose a system in which the money follows the student, which is a financial hardship for smaller communities like ours. The state also requires that the local school pay for transportation and the cost of participation in extra curricular for students who are not enrolled in the school. I’m for relieving public schools from these burdens in addition to allowing students to enroll in a different public school. I see these as interconnected issues."Other| Read My Position

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