Should NH add an income tax on earned income?
"Other. I would only consider it if the NH Legislature cannot arrive at a reasonable amount that would fund a fair and adequate public education. Our schools make up the fabric of our communities and are the future of the continued viability of our exceptional and beautiful State."

Should the state do more to encourage municipalities to remove zoning barriers to housing development?
"Undecided. I think the state has been very proactive in working with local land use boards to amend their zoning ordinances and master plans to accommodate affordable housing development. It is a lengthy process. The development of creative incentives would help to increase the # of units."

Should New Hampshire legalize the recreational use of marijuana by allowing home-growing and private use without sales?
"Against. I am one of the Democrats that voted against the legalization for recreational use. I am not opposed to the medicinal use for adults and teenagers because it at least allows for a conversation for the pros/cons. The state receives revenues from alcohol, cigarettes and gambling. I think that allowing marijuana to be recreational for people under 21 presents a series health issue that far outweighs the money the state would collect."

Should NH pass stricter gun control laws?
