Education
As a civics teacher in a NH public high school for over 25 years and a father of four kids who have attended public schools, I can speak with authority on this topic.
- Recognizing the crucial role of parents in their child’s education, I advocate for empowering them to choose the educational path that they believe will best serve their child’s needs and aspirations.
- I pledge to return schools to a focus on high standards both academically and behaviorally.
- I will work to make sure schools are teaching students HOW to think and not WHAT to think.
- I guarantee to work to give students the opportunity to explore their passion and interest after high school whatever that might be from college to the trades.
- I will advocate for practical, state-wide policies, such as ensuring that only biological girls compete in high school sports, keeping parents informed if their child is exploring different sexual identities, and requiring schools to provide honest answers to parents about their children’s activities and well-being.

Abortion
While NH Democrats, including all of my opponents, continue to push for abortion in the 6th, 7th, and 8th months of pregnancy paid for by our tax dollars, I will oppose their extremism. I support the current NH law that restricts abortion after 6 months of pregnancy unless the mother’s life is in danger or there’s a fatal fetal anomaly. This position is supported by the majority of Granite Staters who also want our laws to support them in growing their families, saving for their children, and enjoying their parental rights. Delivering pro-family policy will be my focus in Concord.
II know that the decision to have an abortion is not one that women take lightly. In my position as a member of NH House of Representatives, I will use my platform to speak to males about their essential role in this issue
- Stressing to fathers that when they take responsibility for an unplanned pregnancy their baby’s life could be saved.
- It is important to remember that supporting a woman with an unplanned pregnancy doesn’t mean having every answer about what raising that child will look like. When men say, “I don’t know how we’re going to do this, but I’m staying by your side to figure it out because I love you and our baby,” they are being more supportive of women than when they say, “It’s your decision.” The latter leaves the woman alone with the burden of making the decision by herself.
- Many women seek an abortion because they believe they’ll have to raise the baby alone, but if their baby’s father told them that they wanted to be present fathers to their child, so many lives could be saved.
