Ms. Viola Fletcher — the oldest survivor of the Tulsa race massacre (in the green jacket) — tells Congress she turned 107 two weeks ago and this is her first trip to Washington: “I’m here seeking justice, and I’m asking my country to acknowledge what happened on May 31, 1921.”

Enjoying your weekend? Thank unions.

A taxpayer funded giveaway with virtually no controls or checks? No wonder Jeb and Repubs have studiously avoided serious public hearings on fiscal impact. Repubs raising propert taxes! #nhpolitics

[Erik Corbett @CorbettForNH]

Remember this when Jeb talks about ‘protecting the tax payer’ next fall. #NHPolitics

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

I tend to feel same way. It will be a long time before I do so.

"There is absolutely no need to remove this mandate at this time, other than to satisfy the radical right-wing elements of the Republican party. State House staff should not have to fear potentially deadly illness when they come into work each day." -@rennycushing #NHPolitics

How ironic, on 60th anniv. of Freedom Rides, NH might ban discussionn ofof topics like Freedom Rides, via HB 544. Shameful and embarrassing

135 days since Rep. Dawn Johnson posted racist/anti-Semitic material on social media. 108 days for Rep. James Spillane. 75 days ago Rep. Terry Roy urged his neonazi buddies on Gab to subvert the House. No action taken by @NHSpeaker or @GovChrisSununu

House Repubs have now spent 30 minutes on parliamentary maneuvers to avoid debate and a vote on hb251, to strengthen child safety seats in cars. Claiming that NOT strengthening safety regulations is actually on behalf of children. Orwellian logic. #NHPolitics

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

Pretty much sums it up! #nhpolitics

There is Sununu world and then there is the real world. #nhpolitics

"Contradicting the governor's claim, all other New England states have made out-of-state students eligible for the vaccine or are in the process of doing so, according to Associated Press reports and state policies." #NHPolitics

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

Sununu issues another mandate without considering complexities or even consulting school districts. Where is that vaunted local control? #NHPolitics

[AFTNewHampshire @AFTNewHampshire]

AFT-NH President Doug Ley has released the following statement following Governor Sununu's order today to open schools for 5 days and full-time. Click the link for the release.

Lawmakers tie emergency power restrictions into state budget plan https://t.co/CccHeeQ9vn

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

Yup. This is also what they plan to do with educ vouchers, etc. Public hearings only reveal bankruptcy of their policies, so Repubs will scurry to put their harmful ideas into budget, hope public does not notice. #nhpolitics @NHHouseDems

[NH House Democrats @NHHouseDems]

"The budget is no place to hide unrelated policy amendments, but apparently that’s what @NHHouseGOP are resorting to in order to appease the radical wing of their caucus.” -@mjwallner #NHPolitics

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

Hey, vote for me! I just fear if I win, my prize is honorary membership in the NHGOP, the most "out of touch" political party! #nhpolitics

[New Hampshire Republican Party @NHGOP]

The First Annual NHGOP Dems' Madness is LIVE!

Each day this week we'll run Twitter polls between various New Hampshire Democrats - vote for the most out-of-touch Democrat there is!

Polls close in our first round tonight at 10 PM - happy voting!

#nhpolitics

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

@NHGOP Vote for me, Doug Ley! My only fear is that if I win as most "out of touch," my prize is an honorary membership in the most "out of touch" party, the NHGOP!

[Doug Ley @ley_doug]

Time to stop so-called right to work!
#nhpolitics @AFTunion @mspetter @rweingarten

[AFTNewHampshire @AFTNewHampshire]

Right to Work is wrong for NH. Passage of SB 61 means lower wages for NH workers. The House Labor Committee will hold a public hearing on 3/25 at 10 am. Use the link to register your opposition. @ley_doug @NTULocal1044

@AFTNewHampshire @NTULocal1044 Time to rally and stop so-called right-to'work! Labor stands united in defense of all working people. Remember, only have weekends and workplace protections due to fights by unions! #nhpolitics @AFTNewHampshire
