Opposes adding a state income tax on earned income

Answered "Against" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should NH add an income tax on earned income?"

Supports reinstating the interest and dividends tax

Answered "For" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should New Hampshire reinstate the interest and dividends tax?" Written answer: “Eliminating this tax mainly aided big out of state companies and high income investors. It also increased the tax burden to property owners in NH which is why I support reinstating it.”

Supports stricter gun control laws

Answered "For" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should NH pass stricter gun control laws?" Written answer: “I have no problem with people responsibly owning guns for hunting, target shooting, protection in their home or while in perceived dangerous situations.”

Opposes the Education Freedom Account program

Answered "Against" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "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?" Written answer: “The current system has morphed into a multi million dollar handout. Often these students had already been enrolled in parochial or private schools.”

Opposes a state cap on school budget increases

Answered "Against" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should state law cap how much local school districts can increase their budget each year?" Written answer: “This is a local control issue. A warrant article can allow local people to make the call in their own towns.”

Supports state efforts to ease local zoning for housing

Answered "For" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should the state do more to encourage municipalities to remove zoning barriers to housing development?" Written answer: “There is no question that NH needs more affordable housing. It will take creative thinking to get this done.”

Supports guaranteeing abortion access before 24 weeks

Answered "For" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should New Hampshire guarantee the right to access abortion before 24 weeks?" Written answer: “This is a family decision and should not be legislated. New Hampshire is the only New England state that has not codified abortion protection.”

Opposes requiring proof of citizenship to register to vote

Answered "Against" on the Citizens Count 2026 issue survey question: "Should New Hampshire require new voters to provide proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate or passport, when registering to vote?" Written answer: “This is just another way to keep people, especially young people from voting. Passports cost money and sometimes birth certificates are lost. Almost everyone in NH has a drivers license who can vote. Drivers licenses should suffice.”
