I have the strongest record of fiscal responsibility in an executive position, and the most progressive values and policies, of anybody running for governor in either party. I have specific proposals that I have developed over 15 years of being an auditor, a mayor, Director of Corporate Relations for UNH, a small business person, the son of immigrants, and a parent and husband.

As governor, I will improve our economy and quality of life, attracting new talent into our state, and keeping our homegrown talent here, by focusing on the four areas hundreds of residents, civic, and business leaders have told me matter most to New Hampshire’s future:

• Combating the state’s heroin and opioid crisis
• Working to deliver America’s highest-performing public schools for all New Hampshire children
• Strengthening our local and regional infrastructure, including bridges, roads, water, wastewater, and electric grid
• Creating tax and regulatory policies that make New Hampshire the best state in America to start a business

I have specific price tags and detailed proposals for all these plans and specific, sustainable ways to pay for them. No other candidate can say the same thing.

While we do all that, I am proud to be the most progressive candidate running for governor.

I am the only major candidate calling for the legalization of marijuana, the abolition of the death penalty, the installation of paid family leave, and the halt of the Northern Pass.

To put it plainly: I am the most fiscally responsible candidate and have the most progressive values. This is the future of New Hampshire.
