Ayotte signs bills on parental rights, Education Freedom Accounts Gov. Kelly Ayotte signed two pieces of legislation Tuesday morning that were high priorities for conservatives in the State House.

"If a student is not safe at home and they report something at school, a parent can say, 'What did my child report?' and then you have to disclose what they reported. So, you are putting that child in danger." @aftnh.bsky.social www.wmur.com/article/ayot...

Even Fox News polling shows that President Trump is failing to live up to his promise to improve the economy. Wall Street has slumped, retirees’ assets have declined and housing costs and prices have increased.

Yes, another lawsuit!!! By effectively freezing the nation’s student loan system, Trump is making life harder for working people, including for 45 million borrowers who have taken on debt to go to college. Biden tried to fix it; Trump is breaking it again. www.aft.org/press-releas...
