Tell Congress: Stop Masked Agents Our communities should not be forced to live in fear of masked, armed agents on our streets. Tell Congress to pass the VISIBLE Act immediately.

This is a devastating moment and a painful setback for transgender youth, their families, and their doctors. No matter what, we will never stop fighting for the rights and dignity of transgender people in the Granite State. #nhpolitics

By signing these bills into law, HB 377 and HB 712 will ban many health care treatments for gender dysphoria for transgender youth, prohibit doctors from providing such care and strip parents of the right to guide medical decisions for their own children. #nhpolitics

BREAKING: Governor Ayotte, despite the warning of medical organizations and civil rights activists, just signed two bills that will ban gender-affirming care for transgender youth in New Hampshire. #nhpolitics

We’re in court today continuing our fight against the executive order attacking birthright citizenship.

We’ve said it once and we’ll say again β€” if you are born on U.S. soil you are an American citizen, period.

The Constitution makes it abundantly clear β€” if you are born here you are a citizen here, full stop.

ICE flights at Pease raise concerns and 'fear' for immigrants in Portsmouth Portsmouth mayor says ICE flights at Pease have residents concerned about the Trump administration striking 'fear" in immigrants.

New Hampshire should not be used as a layover for immigrants to be secretly flown to other detention centers across the U.S.

This is a cruel and gross expansion of the Trump administration’s deportation machine. www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/l...

If signed, these bills would take personal, private, medical decisions away from trans youth, their families, and health care providers as well as attack our right to bodily autonomy. #nhpolitics

Last week HB 148, a bill that would have rolled back years of bipartisan anti-discrimination protections for transgender and gender nonconforming Granite Staters, was defeated.

No matter what, we will never stop fighting for transgender Granite Staters.

Our right to freedom of expression means being able to read whatever we want, whenever we want whether it’s β€œPerks of Being a Wallflower” or β€œGender Queer.”

To live free is to read free, and we will never stop. #nhpolitics

Last week, thanks to thousands of Granite Staters who showed up, spoke out, and sent messages to NH lawmakers, HB 324, the book ban bill, was vetoed by Governor Ayotte. #nhpolitics

TAKE ACTION: Everyone should have the right to make their own personal, private health care decisions with their families and providers.

But right now two bills, HB 377 and HB 712, could strip trans youth and their families of that right. #nhpolitics

This is a big step in our case protecting our 14th Amendment rights, which are explicitly protected in the Constitution.

ICE arrests have tripled in NH. What to know about success of Trump’s mass deportations Immigration arrests are sharply up around the country, and New Hampshire is no exception. But did Obama deport more people than Trump?

New Hampshire communities deserve law enforcement officials that look out for the interests of the community they serve, not the Trump administration. #nhpolitics www.seacoastonline.com/story/news/p...

VICTORY: Governor Ayotte just vetoed a bill that would have rolled back critical protections for transgender and gender nonconforming Granite Staters in our state’s anti-discrimination laws.

This affirms what we know to be true: hate has no place in the Granite State. #nhpolitics

URGENT ACTION: As soon as this week Governor Ayotte could sign HB 324, the book ban bill, into law.

Book bans are archaic, deeply unpopular in the Granite State and nationwide, and do nothing but censor our freedom of expression and access to diverse perspectives. #nhpolitics

The right to free expression includes the freedom to say, think, read, and write whatever we want.

However, bills like HB 324, could create an avenue for classroom censorship, have a chilling effect for educators, and impede on students’ right to an education free from censorship. #nhpolitics
