State statements
EducationNo. 1/8
New Hampshire should repeal its education freedom account program.
Background
Education freedom accounts give families state money to spend on private school tuition, homeschooling and other education costs. Income limits on the program were removed in 2025, and repeal would end new and existing accounts.
Giving parents the freedom to choose the education setting that best fits their child's needs will help every student in our state reach their full potential.

New Hampshire should end the monthly premiums it charges some adults on Medicaid.
Background
The 2025 state budget added monthly premiums for some Medicaid enrollees above set income levels, starting in 2026. Ending them would return to coverage without a monthly charge for those enrollees.
We brought our adult Medicaid eligibility back in line with pre-pandemic levels and joined our neighbors in requiring nominal copays for those receiving these benefits.

New Hampshire should put a right to abortion into state law.
Background
New Hampshire law currently allows abortion up to 24 weeks of pregnancy, with later exceptions for medical emergencies. The state has no statute or constitutional provision that sets out a general right to abortion.
Cinde Warmington will repeal Governor Sununu's dangerous abortion ban and put into law protections for all Granite Staters to access safe, legal abortion care.

New Hampshire should require background checks for private gun sales.
Background
Licensed gun dealers must run a background check on buyers, but private sellers in New Hampshire do not have to. This would extend the check requirement to most sales between private parties.
New Hampshire should encourage local police to sign agreements to help enforce federal immigration law.
Background
Under federal 287(g) agreements, local officers can carry out some immigration enforcement tasks for ICE. Dozens of New Hampshire agencies, including State Police, have signed such agreements, and state law now bars local sanctuary policies.
New Hampshire should make it easier for judges to hold people charged with violent crimes until trial.
Background
Judges decide whether people charged with crimes are released before trial and on what conditions. This would widen the cases in which a defendant charged with a violent crime can be held in jail until trial.
The broken bail law was a failed social experiment that created a revolving door for violent criminals in our state. Today, we slammed that revolving door shut.

New Hampshire should temporarily suspend its state gas tax.
Background
New Hampshire charges a state road toll on each gallon of gasoline, and the money pays for road and bridge work. A suspension would lower pump prices for a set period and reduce highway fund revenue.
We have looked at any steps we can take to make sure we are reducing costs on people, but at this point we won't take that step but I will continue to monitor the situation
I think it's time that we took a look at a gas tax suspension here in the state and give them some immediate relief on these costs that they're facing.
New Hampshire should limit local zoning rules that block apartments and smaller homes.
Background
Towns in New Hampshire set their own zoning rules on lot sizes, density and housing types. State limits would require towns to allow more kinds of housing in more places.
We need to offer incentives and grants to communities willing to change their zoning to be less restrictive, and to offer community development funds for expanding infrastructure to support denser housing.
