| Question | Their answer | Aligned answer | Counted as |
|---|---|---|---|
| Broad-based income taxShould NH add an income tax on earned income?Raise Taxes to Expand Government · Economic Democracy"Currently our citizens are overtaxed at the property level, adding a new tax will only hurt the working and middle class. New Hampshire's families need money in their pocketbook for groceries, energy, and basic household needs." | Against | For | Not aligned |
| Interest and Dividends taxShould New Hampshire reinstate the interest and dividends tax?Raise Taxes to Expand Government · Economic Democracy"Yes, New Hampshire needs revenue for our public schools and other important efforts. We should start reinvesting in our families and local townships. Revenue from the wealthiest share holders supports these efforts." | For | For | Aligned |
| Business tax decreaseShould New Hampshire lower business taxes?Raise Taxes to Expand Government · Economic Democracy"Revenue can only come from so many places, New Hampshire tax payers are stretched thin. Business tax is a way to support the working and middle class. Small businesses should not be taxed if they make below $200,000." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Fund the Office of the Child AdvocateShould New Hampshire restore funding for the Office of the Child Advocate?Grow the State Budget · Economic Democracy | For | For | Aligned |
| School district tax cap mandateShould state law cap how much local school districts can increase their budget each year?Grow the State Budget · Economic Democracy"Local control is very important. Local citizens understand the needs of the school district and should have control over their taxes." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| "Education Freedom Account" programDo you support the “Education Freedom Account” program, which gives students access to the per-pupil share of state school funding to spend on private school or home school expenses?Defend the Public School Monopoly · Freedom To Flourish"I do not support the current system. It has gotten way out of hand and is robbing much needed funds from the majority of students in our state. This program needs to be remodeled and aligned with responsible economic decisions for the majority of New Hampshire students and families." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Public school open enrollment with limitsShould New Hampshire allow at least 10% of students in each school district to enroll in a different public school, regardless of where they live?Defend the Public School Monopoly · Freedom To Flourish"There should be no legislation on open enrollment. The state has over stepped its boundary on this issue. Trying to micromanage local decisions is not the 'New Hampshire' way. The persistent clamor and redesign of the law is a waste of energy - manipulation to get something through has been an endless fight. New Hampshire has clearly stated it does not want legislation of any kind on open enrollment." | Against | Against | Aligned |
| Expand net metering opportunitiesDo you support legislation to expand the net energy metering system capacity cap from 1 MW to 5 MW for all residential and commercial customers in New Hampshire?Green New Deal Energy Mandates · Green New Deal"We need energy solutions and this is one that can help our planet and pocketbook." | For | For | Aligned |
| Allow segregation based on biological sexShould New Hampshire’s anti-discrimination law allow segregation based on biological sex in some settings, such as bathrooms and locker rooms?Gender Identity Over Biological Sex · Feminism For All"Gender based bathrooms supports diversity and inclusion efforts." | Against | Against | Aligned |
