No Kings events today were good, similar turnout to previous events I've attended.

My reflection for today: it's been 30 days since we started war. It's estimated to cost $2bil/day. So, $60bil total. You can fund the NH state budget for 8 years. You can fund all NH public schools for 15 years.

Disgusting stuff, but seeing folks of a similar mindset gives me some hope.

NH House is back in session this week, and I actually got here early for once! Like, even early for the pre-session caucus, too! Nice weather out today; hopefully we can get out early this time so that I can get some walking in, too... Livethread starts here. #NHPolitics
Energy demand is spiking due to AI. Supply is constrained due war in Iran. The NH Legislature's solution is to limit the availability of less expensive, renewable energy sources to residents in the future. Renewable energy increases supply. It's a pressure relief valve that puts downward pressure on consumer pricing. NH already has some of the highest energy costs in the country.

In wake of legislative confusion, bill takes a second pass at gutting Renewable Energy Fund • New Hampshire Bulletin

Any little bit would help. The cost of special education (including transportation) is exploding across New Hampshire. "...The state does little to help; 85% of special education costs are borne by districts." That's another way of saying your property taxes.

John E. Sununu says his ideal Supreme Court is “nine Scalias” and praises Kavanaugh, Alito, and Thomas — who overturned Roe v. Wade and tried to keep Trump’s price-hiking tariffs in place. #nhsen #nhpolitics
Any idea if there'd be room for state-level charges under NH state law here? (since Lewandowski is from NH) #NHPolitics
