Dr. Oge Young strongly supports SB1 because, "Paid family leave is fundamental to a healthy society...I would argue that we cannot afford not to have paid family leave. The future of our society rests on this investment." Read more below! #nhpolitics

HB 124 would repeal the Buffer zone-some want the “right” to intimidate & frighten women seeking health care saying they are just “praying for them OR is it Preying upon them while at their most vulnerable?
⬇️ & let’s pass HB 731 to raise the NH min wage to $15/Hr! C’mon Granite State! We are a very wealthy state in the wealthiest country on Earth. We must do better than starvation wages. Pass HB 731 this year & that’s a start! #NHPolitics@NHHouseofReps@RaisetheWage#Fightfor15
Testifying in support of #SB1, Senator @mfclark says one of the great aspects of this bill is that it ensures the Granite Staters who need access to a #paidleave benefit most, have it. #nhpolitics
In all 50 states, data shows a single worker currently needs or will soon need at least $15 an hour to cover basic living costs. The Raise the Wage Act of 2019 would help ensure that more working people throughout the country will be able to make ends meet. #raisethewage
Why do we need a $15 minimum wage nationwide? Because as Richard explains, over 20 states have made it illegal for cities and town to raise the wage. It's time for a federal $15 standard.

The national minimum wage is $7.25. It's a poverty wage, and it hasn't been raised in over 9 years. House+Senate Democrats just introduced a federal $15 minimum wage and we're going to fight to make it a reality!

Glad to see @GovChrisSununu recognizing the importance of #paidleave to NH families, however if he wants to get serious about a solution he needs to reach out to New Hampshire stakeholders and create a workable path forward. #nhpolitics
Moving testimony from Sabrina Butler, a former death row inmate falsely accused of killing her child. We must #AbolishTheDeathPenalty. @rennycushing @DebrasATeam @JoshuaAdjutant @TrishKleeNH
So @GovChrisSununu is going to unilaterally propose a paid family & medical leave insurance program with no buy-in from NH stakeholders, no actuary studies to back it up, and no legislative ground game in place to advance it? Yup, sounds like a Sununu plan alright #nhpolitics
18 states began the new year with increases in their minimum hourly wage. Will NH some day follow? (After possibly re-establishing a minimum wage in state law...)https://t.co/4MW4OZNmSj
