We won!! We are grateful the court rejected New Hampshire’s attempt to justify this impermissibly vague divisive concepts law, which hurts students and teachers. As we pleaded in our papers, the law makes it impossible for educators to do our jobs

NH’s libertarian funding paradigm means that housing is outrageously expensive, the public universities barely receive any public funding, and schools in low-income communities struggle.
Republicans love this of course because an educated population is dangerous to them

Bottom line: NH has among the highest property tax rates in the country due to Republicans downshifting of tax burdens to towns. @NHGOP have held full control of government for the last two years. If they wanted to lower property taxes, they would. They don’t. #NHPolitics twitter.com/TheNHSenate/st…

I voted no on the Republican House Rules package.
This was a chance to craft rules that incentivize bipartisanship—instead, GOP leadership catered to their party's most extreme factions.
Despite this, will keep working across the aisle to deliver real results.
