Here are just a few examples of bills that our current representatives recently voted on:
- All three State Reps in my district (Derek Owen, Gary Richardson and Christina Hamm) voted for SB 450. This bill raised taxes on tobacco, enabled towns and cities to raise rooms and meals taxes on their own. It also increased the insurance premium tax, an estate tax and a tax on electric generation. I would have voted against this bill because in NH we have a spending problem, not a revenue problem. We must stop burdening NH citizens with more taxes and fees to pay for the states irresponsible spending habits.
- All three State Reps in my district (Derek Owen, Gary Richardson and Christina Hamm) voted against HB 1661!! This bill would have repealed the LLC income tax on small businesses. I would have never voted for the LLC income tax. Repealing it and giving small businesses the relief they need to prosper and create jobs will be at the top of my list.
- All three State Reps in my district (Derek Owen, Gary Richardson and Christina Hamm) voted against HB 531!! This would have restored the parental notification law mandating that parents be notified when their MINOR child gets an ABORTION. I would have voted to restore that law. Nobody and I mean nobody has a right to perform a medical procedure of any kind on a minor without notification and consent of the parentperform a medical procedure of anykind on a minor with out notification and consent of the parent..
- Both Derek Owen and Gary Richardson voted against HB 1296 that would have prohibited any state agency from establishing a fee without legislative approval. If I was a State Rep in one of those seats I would have voted for it. State agencies have no business establishing fees without the consent of the legislature.
- All three State Reps in my district (Derek Owen, Gary Richardson and Christina Hamm) voted for HB 415. The “Bathroom” bill was designed to allow people experiencing a “gender crisis” to use any bathroom they wanted. I would have voted against this because it’s just plain old silliness to even entertain the idea.
