This Week’s KSC Visibility
KSC Day of Action at the State House
Please join Kent Street for a day of action at the State House.
Oppose GOP efforts to override Governor Ayotte’s vetoes of bills imposing a book ban, enforcing anti-Trans bathroom policies, expanding exemptions for vaccinations and limiting accessible voting machine access.
Deliver a petition to Governor Ayotte and the Executive Council supporting sanctuary communities and urging them to protect Granite Staters from ICE cruelty. If you have not yet signed the petition, please add your name here. Also, please sign this additional petition from the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) demanding an end to detention and deportation and asserting that immigrants make communities stronger and deserve dignity and respect.

NH Actions You Can Take

The NH School Voucher Scam: Millions and Millions of Dollars, No End in Sight!
Visibility and Accountability!
The NH GOP School Voucher scheme has been much in the news lately for its unfettered costs and lack of legislative accountability. Here. Here. Here. or Here.
Unfortunately, too few Granite Staters are making the connection between this multi-million dollar GOP giveaway and their skyrocketing property taxes.
Kent Street is committed to holding Governor Ayotte and the GOP legislature accountable for what in the next few years could well be a billion dollar boondoggle.
ACTIONS:
VISIBILITY: Tuesday, December 16, State House, 9:15 am. After failing to meet for over a year, the legislative Education Freedom Saving Account Oversight Committee will finally be meeting. Join us to hold signs demanding accountability and transparency.
TELL YOUR FRIENDS AND NEIGHBORS: Last week, Kent Street held a visibility drawing attention to the devastating costs of the NH GOP’s school voucher scam and the shocking lack of transparency and accountability in its use of public funds.
Please spread the word to all of your friends and neighbors by sharing information from our NH School Voucher fact sheet (H/T Mary Wilke). Share in town Facebook groups or print the flyer off and leave it in places where folks in your community gather (a 2-sided half-sheet version is available here.) And if you have a chance, drop us a message to let us know how it goes!

Contact your representatives and urge them to sustain the Governor’s vetoes of HB 613 and HB 356.
The House will meet on Wednesday, December 17th at 10 AM to decide which of the Governor's vetoes to sustain or override. A two-thirds majority of members present and voting is required to override a veto. There are two Election Law bills for the House to decide on:
Keep Sounding the Alarm on HB 1300
HB 1300, sponsored by Rep. Ankarberg and Sen. Innis, seeks to follow the lead of other states by redrawing NH's congressional districts in the middle of the decade.
We need to keep raising awareness about this attempt to change the rules in the middle of the game!

"I hate to ascribe motives, but…c’mon: It uses surgical precision to get Manchester, Nashua, and Concord in the same district, pick off virtually only the red towns of Merrimack County without touching any of the really blue parts, and get Salem and Windham into CD1. It’s overt gerrymandering." - Read the full article by Steve Marchand on Substack
