James Gardner for Myself Keene This bill provides better government transparency to us Granite Staters! | Keene | Support | 72 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Karen Bemis for Myself Bristol I OPPOSE this bill because it would impose statewide mandates on how local communities govern. | Bristol | Oppose | 94 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Diane Betz for Myself North Hampton OPPOSE!! | North Hampton | Oppose | 8 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Julie Laracy for Myself Conway This bill would impose statewide mandates on how local communities govern | Conway | Oppose | 73 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Rosemary D'Arcy for Myself Bristol This bill amounts to state government overreach and could take authority for local projects and initiatives away from local governing bodies and put an unnecessary burden on them without resources to meet the requirements. This is not useful legislation! | Bristol | Oppose | 255 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Ian Rogers for Myself Warner Everyone knows that tax rates go up over time: forcing towns to display this in shiny graphs not only places yet another burden on our overworked town employees, but is liable to stir up unnecessary rage in communities by getting people even angrier about their tax bills going up. Instead of directing blame elsewhere, let's properly fund our infrastructure and existing programs at the state level to place less burden on local town property taxes. | Warner | Oppose | 451 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Donna Mccay for Myself North Hampton The state has no right to interfere in Town government. Keep local control! | North Hampton | Oppose | 76 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Leslie Parker for Myself Greenland Local boards and communities should together decide the necessity of SAU's. | Greenland | Oppose | 75 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Nancy Brown for Myself Hopkinton Unfunded mandates are bad for local governance. | Hopkinton | Oppose | 47 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Jodi Langellotti for Myself Dover I will repeat myself: This should be a local decision. I thought the goal was for less government, not more? | Dover | Oppose | 108 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
April Melo for Myself South Hampton I oppose this bill, local communities already have a hard time governing and finding people willing to do so. Please don’t make it more complicated than it has to be! | South Hampton | Oppose | 167 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
Marie Kapsar for Myself Center Conway I oppose this bill | Center Conway | Oppose | 18 | Apr 7, 2025 | |

Daniel Richardson for Myself Nashua This is stupid. Tax rates are rendered MEANINGLESS by frequent revaluations. The only thing that matters is historic property taxes paid and any tailored tax exemptions secured by entities. | Nashua | Neutral | 190 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
James Mason for Myself Hancock This bill could create an unfunded mandate around historical and potential project | Hancock | Oppose | 82 | Apr 7, 2025 | |
