About three years ago, two Conservatives from Maine created a grassroots organization to lobby the State Legislature to pass laws that align with traditional Maine values and assist Conservative Republican candidates in their quest for office.
Legislation
Keep Politics Out Of Emergencies
In 2021, a group of state representatives angled to have a bill reforming New Hampshire’s state of emergency laws included in the state budget. It became the single issue that the budget debate hinged on. We were partially successful but not completely.
Maine Considers Law Ensuring Citizens Know What Chemicals are … on Trains (No, Not COVID Vaccines)
Train derailments are a lot more common than we knew. However, after the mishandling of the chemical spill in East Palestine, Ohio, people with an itch to look relevant have been thinking about capitalizing on the tragedy for political points.
Support Parents’ Bill Of Rights in New Hampshire
S B272 “Establishing a Parents’ Bill of Rights in Education” is the Senate version. The New Hampshire House Education Committee will have a hearing on SB272, which passed in the State Senate but will need the State House to advance.
We Need to Flip the Vote for HB575 on the House Floor
I support science. I support clinical human trials for innovation. I have participated in several clinical trials since being diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in 2001. I know the importance and time involved in obtaining real informed consent. This legislation is not “anti-vaccine.”
Your State House 2/17/23: Budget, Sununu Youth Center, HHS Privacy, Land Use Court Judge, Gas Tax and More!
This was a very busy week for me; the House met on Tuesday, my committee met as usual on Wednesday and Thursday, then JLCAR on Friday. Fortunately, I’m not planning any committee work for the next two weeks: just sessions and subcommittee work. The House session began with SB 1, a bill from Finance to … Read more
Proposed Legislation That Affects the Right to Life
The NH Legislative Pro-Life Caucus & NH Right to Life are sponsoring a press conference in Concord, NH, to discuss proposed legislation that affects the right to life that will have hearings in House Judiciary later this week.
Why Is a “Self-Funded” State-Owned Ski Area Looking To Take More Money from Taxpayers
Cannon Mountain is at it again – now demanding $25 million from state taxpayers to replace a part-time ski lift that is only halfway through its engineered life (the tramway).
Democrat Bill Would Tie NH to California Emission Rules (That Ban Combustion Engine Vehicles)
There aren’t enough rare earth metals for the New World Order, generation capacity, infrastructure, money to pay for it, or time to build it if we could. So, are New Hampshire Democrats stooges of villains?
Joe Turns Legislation into Lawsuits
We have lost our way in making decisions and setting policy in Washington. We used to have a process where Congress would pass legislation by compromising across the aisle, the Executive Branch would approve it, and the Supreme Court would step in if Constitutionality was in question. Discussion, compromise, bilateral, and bicameral were the norm … Read more
How About Running for Office – Yes, You!
We elect our legislators every two years, and 2022 is a state election year. Primary elections for the NH State Senate and House of Representatives are in four short months, and the general election is in six months. A lot can happen in that time. Will you be part of ensuring a bright future for … Read more
The Tough Sh!t Act
Not too long ago I was sitting in a regular meeting of a regional Republican committee, listening to (mostly older) people talk about how schools have changed over the years — since they were in school, and since their kids were in school. One guy said that when his kids wanted to play baseball or football, he had to pay for their uniforms, help pay for travel, and so on. Someone asked him:
Call your NH Senator Now: Create a Safe Haven for the Preborn
Tomorrow, the New Hampshire Senate will vote on HB 1609. Although this bill was originally introduced as a gutting bill designed to totally nullify our 24-week abortion ban—the Fetal Life Protection Act—the bill was fortunately curtailed by the New Hampshire House Finance Committee before being passed by the full House.
NH House Republican Leadership Are Ushering in Unlimited Abortion
On April 13, the NH House Judiciary Committee will hear Senate Bill 399. Although this bill was introduced to repeal the Fetal Life Protection Act—New Hampshire’s only protection for the late-term pre-born—it was then amended by the NH Senate into a form that Cornerstone supports.
Celebrate A Week Full of Victory!
There is so much good news to report, so I’ll just start with the best: The effort of DCYF to take RebuildNH co-founder JR Hoell’s children—because he gave his son ivermectin—was dismissed today in Family Court.
So Kids, What Did We Learn From Wednesday’s House Session (03/16/22)?
We learned that between 9 am and 10:00 pm (lunch and dinner break included) we were able to vote on around 71 House bills, and pass some really great things for the people of NH. House members truly earned their princely sum of $200 just with this grueling day alone.
Your State House 03/11/22: What a Busy Week!
My committee met this week to recommend all our remaining House bills. First, we heard HB 1256, which changed two positions in the department of veterans’ affairs from classified to unclassified, changed the job titles, and clarified their duties. One member of the committee disliked the way the bill was written and presented an amendment … Read more

It’s Time to Roll Back Executive Rule Making Authority on Vaccine Mandates
Over time, it seems that too much power and authority works its way into the executive branch. However well-intended, this transfer of law-making authority needs to be restored to the legislative branch.
