Sununu Signs Bill Expanding Parental Notification Law to Include Gender Curriculum

by Steve MacDonald

The New Hampshire Legislature put several pro-women, pro-child, and pro-parent bills on Governor Chris Sununun’s desk this session. This is an accomplishment, given the razor-thin Republican majority, participation (attendance) issues inherent in a true citizen legislature, and defections on key bills.

by Op-Ed

I just thought of something: how about testing when starting school? Then Some kids may start in 1st grade and some may start in 2nd grade or even third.

by Steve MacDonald

It doesn’t take much to twist the panties of the average all-in-leftist. Fragile is an understatement. They are tightly wound emotional time bombs with more triggers than a gun store.
