NH FEDERATION OF REPUBLICAN WOMEN
NH YOUNG REPUBLICANS
DEAR ,
We are just finishing the first week of June and Republican leaders
across the state have already made strong strides for the state of New
Hampshire.
Americans across the country of all political ideologies are
frightened and disheartened by the radical agenda of the Biden
administration. His actions (or lack thereof) have proven to be
critically damaging, and we must continue to advocate against his
irrational policies for the sake of New Hampshire residents. This is
why House members have taken important steps to protect our state
against such impositions from the Federal government. Read the
“Official House Update” for more details on these measures.
I would also like to congratulate the Hillsborough County Republican
Committee for their fantastic event featuring Vice President Mike
Pence last evening. It was wonderful to see so many active Republicans
supporting our values in one venue, and this just goes to show how
energized we are heading into the 2022 election cycle.
Next week several towns are hosting local elections, and this Tuesday
is the Bow/Dunbarton special election for Chris Lins. I encourage you
to assist us in ensuring his successful election by reminding your
family and friends to get involved, and more importantly, to vote!
Check out our section on Candidate Chris Lins with information on how
to aid in his campaign.
HAVE A WONDERFUL WEEKEND!

HOUSE PASSES SET OF BILLS PROHIBITING FEDERAL GOVERNMENT OVERREACH
Bedford,Bedford, NH- House Majority Leader Jason Osborne (R-Auburn)
released the following statement in response to the NH House passing
two bills aimed at prohibiting government overreach at the federal
level, and protecting states’ rights. SB154, prohibiting the state
from enforcing a Presidential Executive Order that restricts or
regulates the right of the people to keep and bear arms, passed on a
vote of 199-177. SB89, adopting omnibus legislation relative to
election procedures, passed on a vote of 200-174.
“Since President Biden and the Democrats took control of Washington,
there have been numerous threats on states’ rights and citizens’
basic rights. Something must be done, and the New Hampshire
legislature is making sure that our basic freedoms are going to remain
protected. The federal laws and executive orders being discussed in
Washington relative to firearms would severely restrict our basic
Second Amendment rights and are completely inconsistent with New
Hampshire’s laws and traditions. We are one of the safest states in
the nation, and our current laws are fine the way they are.”
“At the same time, HR1/S1 being discussed in the Senate would have a
severe impact on the way New Hampshire conducts our elections. We are
proud of the way our elections are run here, and the passage of HR1/S1
would only increase voter uneasiness at the polls. The state should
maintain control over our elections to maintain the integrity of the
process. I am disappointed, but not surprised, that our federal
delegation has been conned by the Democrat party machine into
supporting this ‘malarkey.’”
“The Democrats’ rallying cry is that the passage of these bills is
unconstitutional. I would say protecting our state laws is completely
within our right. What is unconstitutional is the blatant stomping on
the US Constitution just so one political party can take complete
control over our basic freedoms and our elections. We have seen that
movie before, and we know how it ends.”

SENATE REPUBLICAN UPDATE
SENATE PASSES A BALANCED BUDGET SERVING ALL OF
NEW HAMPSHIRE!
On a vote of 14-9, Senate Republicans led the way, passing a new
budget for FY22-FY23 today that is balanced, fiscally conservative and
serves all of New Hampshire. The $13.5B spending plan also lowers
property taxes for homeowners, seniors and Main Street businesses,
while at the same time, makes significant investments in local
communities, education and mental health.
Senate President Chuck Morse (R-Salem) said, “I am proud of
this budget. It works for all of New Hampshire by prioritizing our
most vulnerable populations and providing relief to every New
Hampshire taxpayer. Republicans believe the most responsible budgets
are built on reliable revenues, lower taxes and fiscal discipline
which is exactly how we built this one. Our goal is always to be the
very best stewards of our taxpayer’s money as possible, and this new
budget strongly reflects that governing philosophy.”
