Continuing the fight, Wednesday March 5th...

This March 5th is a very important day for citizens of New Hampshire. The agenda that is set to unfold before of our elected officials is quite astounding. Just look at the list at the end of this message as I'm sure you will find at least one item that you have strong feelings about!

I strongly encourage anyone able to attend this major event to come and demonstrate to our elected officials that we are watching them.

It is possible that this session will spillover into March 6th, therefore if possible please be prepared to be there both days.

When: 8:30 AM sharp, Wednesday, March 5th

Where: State House cafeteria, Concord

Why: Income tax. Gun rights. Parental rights. Local control of education. Marijuana decriminalization. Medical Privacy. Redress of Grievances. Public access to legislative amendments. And much more...

Please dress professionally.

Depends on how you look at it. We had over 30 people attend on March 5th, the turnout was good. However, it seems that we were not heard based upon the voting.
