Why I’m running:

In my first 2 years as a State Rep, the New Hampshire House had been able to work with the Democratic Governor and a more balanced Senate to repair some of the damage that was done to NH by the Bill O’Brien legislature of 2011-2012; we worked hard to get the state moving forwards again.

But the progress didn’t continue, we have allowed one party to dominate in Concord, but we can correct this mistake now by turning the House and the Corner Office Blue – and we need your help to make that happen.

So I’m asking for your vote in November, not just for myself but for every Democratic candidate, because regular people, our families, friends and neighbors, need someone to speak for them in Concord, responsive representation is what you should expect from your public servants and I promise I will provide that. Contact me anytime about any issue, and I will respond. We can talk, and together we can make our NH better for it.
