State legislators are proclaiming that one-size-fits-all education isn’t suitable for all children.

Support HB1313 to Repeal Unconstitutional “Buffer Zones” As Granite Staters, we pride ourselves in our “Live Free or Die” motto.

Yet state law currently authorizes so-called buffer zones that restrict peaceful speech on public sidewalks. HB1313, the Sidewalk … Read more

It’s time for the 4th installment of my sporadic Spotlight of Positivity series, and the public servant I’ve selected is the state house gift shop manager and tour guide, Virginia Drew.

On the heels of the executive council blocking an extension of that rent-seeking Gordon-Darby contract, it was pointed out that NH receives $330M of federal highway money each year. Sure, that’s a lot of money, but I still say “so what.” This isn’t the first rodeo, so to speak, with NH and DC. One could … Read more
