The Fight for a Fair Granite State

Elected Leader(s)

For too long, New Hampshire’s leaders have sided with the wealthy and powerful—leaving working families to pay the price. Housing costs are out of reach. Child care now costs more than college. Health care premiums rise year after year while critical services like mental health and child protection are cut back. Meanwhile, the wealthiest 1% and big corporations keep collecting tax breaks—and the rest of us are left to carry the load.

These are deliberate choices made by our state’s leaders—choices that put the wealthy first and working families last. This is the reality they’ve created. But it doesn’t have to be the future we accept.

We are fighting for a New Hampshire where every family can afford a safe home, where every child has access to a great education, and where health care and child care are guarantees, not privileges for the wealthy few. That future is within reach—but only if our leaders have the courage to put people first.

Add your name today to demand bold action that holds the wealthy accountable and builds an economy that works for all Granite Staters.

To the Honorable Elected Officials Representing New Hampshire:

For decades, New Hampshire’s economy has been tilted against working people. The ultra-rich and powerful corporate interests are rigging the rules in their favor – hoarding wealth, dodging taxes, and cutting secret deals with politicians while the rest of us are left paying more and getting less. Corporate tax cuts for companies like Exxon have drained billions from our schools, neighborhoods, and communities. The richest 1% of Granite Staters have been handed massive tax breaks year after year, while property taxes soar for the rest of us. And now new tariffs are driving up the price of food, energy, and everyday essentials even higher – an invisible tax that working families can’t escape.

At the same time, wages have barely budged, and the wealth gap grows wider. Families are being squeezed from every side: rents are skyrocketing, child care now costs more than college tuition, health care premiums rise every year, and public services we rely on are gutted. Cuts to mental health care, disability services, and child protection put the most vulnerable at risk. Our young people are leaving because they can’t afford to stay. This isn’t bad luck – it’s the result of deliberate choices that put billionaires and multinational corporations ahead of Granite Staters who work hard and play by the rules. It’s just not fair.

But we know another future is possible. Imagine a New Hampshire where every family has access to safe, affordable housing, where quality schools prepare every child for success, where health care and child care aren’t luxuries but guarantees, and where our economy truly rewards work, not wealth. We can build it. We can create a state where poverty is eradicated, the wealth gap is closed, and freedom means not having to choose between groceries and your kid’s medicine.

I’m proud to be part of a movement of Granite Staters committed to doing the hard work: organizing in our neighborhoods, sharing our stories, and building power in every corner of our state. We’re ready to stand shoulder to shoulder against the corporate greed and political cowardice that threaten our future. But we can’t do it alone. We need courage and leadership from elected officials willing to put people before profits and fight with us to deliver the economy and future we deserve.

We ask that you commit to fighting for big, bold economic policies that deliver for working families by making sure the rich and powerful finally pay what they owe. Now more than ever, leaders like you must stand and speak clearly and forcefully for ways we can deliver real economic opportunity for working families so they can truly “Live Free.” Together, we can rewrite the rules, hold the wealthy accountable, and build an economy that finally works for all Granite Staters – not just the wealthy few.
