Child care costs have risen more than 30% for New Hampshire families since 2017, costing more than $30,000 a year for parents who have an infant and a 4-year-old enrolled in a licensed program, yet Republican State House leaders rejected a bill that would have expanded eligibility for cost relief for struggling families.

🎉 The new and improved https://t.co/m9FYb7Estl is officially live!!! 🎉
Over the last several months, we have been hard at work creating your new central hub for all things NH news. Head to https://t.co/m9FYb7Estl to find out all you need to know about the most important goings on in NH!
The results are in: New Hampshire is failing to properly fund public schools or provide adequate education to Granite State students.
NH ranks last in the nation for state education funding, and saw the country's second-largest decrease in public school teachers between 2023 and 2025, a 6.74% decline. New Hampshire's teacher compensation is “estimated to have declined by about 7% since 2017,” giving NH a national ranking of 42nd for teacher pay.
NH students have a right to a quality education. Our elected officials’ outright refusal to properly fund public education is utterly unacceptable. https://t.co/NHwiiPNeIZ
Gas prices continue to rise and Republican leaders in Concord and D.C. continue to neglect to do anything to help struggling, hardworking people who are being crushed under rising costs.
NH conservatives seem to rather spend their time on political stunts, trying to pass tax relief for billionaires, and defunding public schools. NH deserves better. https://t.co/21RrYNtnDG
Extremism has no place in our schools or in our government.
New reporting from NPR shows NH Republican Rep. Matt Sabourin dit Choinière has faced zero consequences from Republican leadership for working with a Holocaust denier to rewrite history in New Hampshire public schools.
We’re learning that more and more NH Republicans spend their time pushing extremist ideology instead of doing their jobs.. NH deserves leadership who stand up to extremists, not allow them to fester in their own party.

“Instead of doing anything to lower property taxes or cut costs for working people, conservative leaders are caving to extremism and failing to deliver,” said Aimee Terravechia, Executive Director of 603 Equality. “Granite Staters deserve representatives who will actually fight for them, not extremists who are so far afield from the needs and wants of working people that they ought to be disqualified from leadership.”
Yesterday, members of the NH House of Representatives heard almost 3 hours of testimony during a disciplinary hearing regarding Rep. Travis Corcoran’s inflammatory and dangerous social media posts, including a tweet about a “final solution” in March, invoking a violent Nazi euphemism for the mass murder of Jews during World War II,
While the hearing focused on Rep. Corcoran, multiple conservative leaders across New Hampshire have spent their time in office pushing an extreme ideological agenda instead of focusing on solutions to make Granite Staters’ lives more affordable.

We have Republicans in Concord and D.C. to thank as gas prices hit their highest in four years, now averaging $4.18 a gallon. NH conservatives continue to fail to find solutions to make Granite Staters' lives more affordable, choosing instead to prioritize cutting taxes for billionaires and corporations instead of delivering relief for working people.
New Hampshire cannot take much more of this. It’s time for our elected officials to step up and fight to help hardworking Granite Staters.

In a major win for NH Democrats & NH public schools, yesterday the NH House tabled Republicans’ harmful and costly “universal open enrollment” scheme.
Instead of cutting school funding and making education disparities worse, we should be investing in strong schools for every NH student.

“...consumer prices in March were up 3.3% from a year ago. That's the biggest annual increase since May of 2024. Prices jumped 0.9% between February and March.”
Inflation continues to rise, hitting a 2 year high, pushing everyday prices higher and higher. All while Republican leadership at the state house wastes time, refusing to enact policies that would help ease the cost burden on the hardworking people of New Hampshire.

“If we’re not able to deliver babies in Coös County, pregnant women and neonates will die.” - Tom Mee, CEO of North Country Healthcare
New Hampshire’s rural healthcare system is struggling and our elected officials are only making it worse. Rural Granite Staters cannot be required to drive hours to receive life saving medical care. We need to protect health care access for rural communities in the rural communities themselves.

“We can no longer count on the integrity of our Republican elected officials to determine when they’ve done something unconscionable. We cannot count on our governor to act as an actual leader in the face of the horrible actions of her caucus members.” - Alice Wade (D-Dover), representing Strafford - District 15.

National gas prices continue to rise as a result of Trump’s war in Iran. Here in NH prices have now risen over $4.00 a gallon.

As Granite Staters struggle with rising costs, NH Republicans push legislation that would make life even harder for people struggling by kicking an estimated 15,000 Granite Staters off SNAP. #NHPolitics
NH deserves leaders who protect our freedoms, not ban them. It’s past time NH Republicans stop banning our books, our flags, our bodies, and our freedoms. Say no to more bans; stop HB1132, SB459, and SB434.
“The question is how do we afford it.” - Rep. Heather Raymond, D-Nashua
Despite widespread opposition NH Republicans are currently trying to jam through their new “Open Enrollment” scheme, a policy could drastically defund New Hampshire’s already struggling public school districts. https://t.co/oTvQHHYDHX

“This bill is really a shameful dereliction of duty,” - Sen. Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua)
“The Republican-backed legislation would avoid a debate over how much money the state spends on education and instead limit the state’s obligation… Local taxpayers would cover the rest, such as transportation, school administration, and nurses.” Read more:

NH voters are making themselves clear by showing up to protect education funding for all of their students. NH Republicans’ scheme to divert local tax dollars away from local schools was widely rejected last during last week’s town meeting day.

Hardworking NH families are already struggling to pay for basic needs like groceries, housing, and health care. Now, gas prices are shooting up even higher because of Trump's new war in Iran.
This war is making the cost of living even worse for Granite Staters. New Hampshire deserves better. https://t.co/mNuMURu4zB
