Should New Hampshire ban abortion after 20 weeks gestation, with exceptions for cases of rape/incest and health complications?
"Its more complicated that this. I delivered at 26.5 weeks and lost one of the twins. The surviving twin is a mother, business owner, active community member. Yet I do not want to ban the right to chose abortions completely."

Should NH continue to administer statewide standards-based student assessments?
"I believe we need to administer student assessments to make sure all of our NH public schools provide education that is as good or better than the rest of the US. I do not believe in testing and not getting the data back to teachers on a timely basis. I do not believe in teaching to the test or wasting precious classroom time."

Should NH pass stricter gun control laws?
"We have some rules and laws in place that are not being enforced. This is a matter of registering all purchases by all owners and therefore making it possible for complete background checks. We value gun ownership in the North Country, responsible gun ownership. Many of the gun owners I have spoken with are not opposed to licensing and gun safety training. Many believe the assault rifles could be stored at a remote site without limiting access by owner. So there are conversations to be had in NH about how we 'live free or die' and have responsible gun owners. I do not believe arming primary and secondary teachers is a good idea."
