During #TeacherAppreciationWeek, the #NH Senate Education Committee voted to advance HB 324—a bill that would CRIMINALIZE teachers & librarians over books. Granite Staters aren’t asking for this. We must stop it. 📢 @everylibrary #NHPolitics #FreedomToRead

Hey, I know her! Come chat #MOMnibus2 with us and all things #nhpolitics 💅
Check out the latest installment of the One Quick Thing podcast, featuring MacKenzie Nicholson—our Senior Director of MomsRising #NH , passionate mom, and fierce advocate for New Hampshire families. In this conversation, Kenz dives into the action at the NH State House, breaking down why the #MOMnibus2 bill is a game-changer for maternal health in our state. She also shares how thousands of moms—and everyday people—are stepping up through online organizing to drive change in their communities. If you're ready to see how local advocacy in NH is making waves, give this episode a listen! Check it out here: youtu.be/HPsHsoyUaXw?si=wI2A…

At the @NHFPI Budget & Policy Conference. If #NH hadn’t sped up the phaseout of the I&D, we’d have an extra $200-350M right now. Enough to make a meaningful difference for families struggling with astronomical #childcare, #housing & #healthcare costs. 🙄🤬 #nhpolitics

#NH friends, tonight is important. Whether you live in #Manchester or all the way up in Pittsburgh, this merger at CMC will affect you. From rising #healthcare costs to trouble finding the care you need, we need to raise some red flags🚩 #maternalhealth #NHPolitics
Our @KenzNicholson warns in @UnionLeader that the compassionate, quality #maternalhealth care NH families have long been able to count on could suffer if @HCAHealthcare takes over the nonprofit Catholic Medical Center. "We owe it to our moms and children to demand a future with accessible, high-quality maternity care." unionleader.com/opinion/op-e…

Thank you for having me, @communitychange @nwlc and @openmarkets! Excited to continue to build MOMentum for child care change!
Replying to @communitychange
Topics ranged from building political power to make child care a public good, strategies needed to bring this information back to our communities to what other industries can teach us about the threads of private equity to the child care sector.

It’s too bad that every vote on the anti-LGBTQ bills being heard in the #NH Senate today will come down to party lines. That tells me we’re not listening to constituents, we’re playing politics. #nhpolitics

.@JoyceCraigNH says she would expand #SummerEBT and participate in direct certification to make sure that we’re feeding our kids while at the same time providing our schools with the adequate funding. #nh #nhpolitics

On addressing our kids’ mental health, @JoyceCraigNH says we need to look at the workforce shortage, Medicaid reimbursement rates and making sure we have enough beds to start. #nh #nhpolitics

“#Childcare workers need an increase in pay, and it can’t come off the backs of parents who have to pay. We need to pay people a #LivableWage who work in these essential services” says @JoyceCraigNH #nh #nhpolitics

To address #childcare affordability, @JoyceCraigNH says streamlining the application process to make it easier for families to apply, increasing the scholarship amount so families can afford quality care & getting folks into the field to increase supply is key. #nh #nhpolitics

In her first budget, @JoyceCraigNHsays she would expand opportunities for families to access #PreK and make sure they are connected the services they need- whether it’s #SNAP, #WIC or diapers! #NH #NHpolitics

As governor, @JoyceCraigNH says she would prioritize funding for #PublicEd in #NH “I believe that every student, no matter where they live, should have access to quality public #education, so all children get the right start in life.” #nhpolitics
