“I support parents making the educational choices they believe are best for their children. But I do not support an unlimited commitment of public dollars to private education while New Hampshire continues to fall short of its responsibility to adequately fund our public schools.”
(Citizens Count Issue Survey) “I do not support weakening New Hampshire's anti-discrimination law to allow discrimination based on gender identity. I believe privacy and safety concerns in bathrooms, locker rooms, and other sensitive settings can be addressed with thoughtful policies and appropriate accommodations without removing civil-rights protections or excluding transgender Granite Staters from public life.”
(Citizens Count Issue Survey) “I do not support arbitrary legislative limitations on abortion because these decisions belong between a patient and their medical provider, particularly in the most difficult and medically complex circumstances. Abortions later in pregnancy are rare - CDC data show only about 1% occur at 21 weeks or later - and these cases can involve serious maternal health concerns or devastating fetal diagnoses.”

(Citizens Count Issue Survey) “New Hampshire is envied nationwide. Let's grow what we've built — not tear it down for the sake of opposition.”
