The other day I saw a bunch of imposters in my part of the city of Nashua with yellow and black signs that said, “Melanie Levesque supports NH families.” Let’s talk about that, shall we?
At this point in time, every informed District 12 voter ought to know and remember that Melanie voted for an income tax.
While Melanie seems to have a problem with truthful free speech. Voting records don’t lie, and she takes umbrage with the well-known yellow yard signs with black letters calling attention to the fact that she voted for an income tax.
Melanie is trying to unseat a senator with an excellent record. Kevin Avard’s record, available to all on NH dot gov, speaks for itself with his votes and the bills he sponsored. He is a family man who supports the family unit.
This leads me to the next part of what I have to say about the State Senate seat next to his, which is currently occupied by Melanie’s dear friend Cindy Rosenwald. Rosenwald’s opponent, Mr. Scaer, is no stranger to the Grok. Everyone who votes in District 13 is encouraged to use the site search tool for a list of his articles. Hopefully, Mr. Scaer will get elected; he is also a Cornerstone endorsed, bringing me to Democrat Shoshanna Kelly.
Alderman Shoshanna Kelly, who is now Executive Councilor Dave Wheeler’s opponent, wrote an attention-seeking Union Leader article shortly after the birth of her son. This was during campaign season 2 years ago, and she was lamenting about her absentee father. In response to Alderman Kelly’s article, Mr. Scaer, though not a candidate at the time, pointed out well-known data that is relevant to this post. Jails are crowded with inmates that came from broken homes, as is “the system” itself.
I leave it up to the reader to define “broken home” since that’s not in the scope of this post. Be that as it may, his closing statement was a question; what can we do as a community to encourage both parents to be an active and positive influence on the kids that they create? (words mine)
My own question now is, what can elected officials do as lawmakers that address current Senate Candidate Scaer’s question asked over two years ago? One answer would be supporting the Parental Bill of Rights, to which we all know what happened last spring. Again, use the Grok search engine. However, our Speaker announced his intention to resubmit it after the election. Keep in mind that Rosenwald voted against it. Voting records don’t lie. Melanie was in office when Mr. Scaer wrote his article, and I am unaware of any comment she has made in response to it, yet here she is on the ballot again!
I would like to close with the following questions for all of Nashua and its western suburbs:
What are the plans of Melanie and her kindred spirit, Rosenwald, to support NH families that don’t involve adding or raising taxes or any kind of expansion of Big Government?
