Mario Ratzki Reports from Concord: October 2014

State revenues will fall short

By Mario Ratzki, NH representative

We had our last legislative session on September 17 to address the Governor’s vetoes of three bills. A two-thirds vote is necessary to overturn a veto. A Yes vote was to overturn, a No vote to uphold. HB 591, an anti-bullying bill which the Governor thought was written too broadly. Veto sustained by a vote […]

Help Getting Insurance

By Carmen Bates

I wanted to write in support of Mario Ratzki and let others know of the help he gave me in getting health insurance coverage. I was divorced in 2009 and without health insurance, as the three jobs that I worked were all with small part-time employers. Mario heard about my situation, and because I was a […]

Navigating State Bureaucracy

By Ed and Mary Hiller

We wish to express our strong support for Mario Ratzki for State Representative for Merrimack County, District One. Since Mario was elected, he has been instrumental in helping many of our citizens navigate the halls of state bureaucracy.  In one specific example, he was instrumental in convincing the State Department of Transportation to provide 14 […]

Sane and Sensible Path

By Bill Bardsley

With election day coming up, it’s time to be thinking about our votes. We have two good people, Mario Ratzki and David Karrick, as our state representatives  and a third, Andrew Hosmer, as our state senator. All three are standing for re-election. Mario, David, and Andrew are hard-working, responsible legislators doing their best to keep […]

They Listen to All Points of View

By Donald & Mary-Lou Hinman

Danbury, Andover, and Salisbury have been very fortunate to have had Mario Ratzki and David Karrick as our representatives to the New Hampshire House these past two years, and we urge their re-election this November. They both have been present at most, if not all, the public gatherings here in Danbury: Grange Fairs, our lecture […]

Common Sense in Concord

By Ken Mailloux

It has been my distinct honor to know Mario Ratski since he wrote a letter to the editor of the Concord Monitor in 2012 stating he wanted to run for office to put some “common sense” back into the workings of the Legislature in Concord. This, coming at the end of the 2010 legislature, seemed […]

A Valuable Partner

By Mario Ratzki

My colleague David Karrick, Merrimack District 25 (Warner, Webster, Salisbury, Andover, and Danbury: the so-called floterial district), has been a valuable partner in Concord in the last two years. As a former banker and former Warner selectman, he brings experience with numbers as well as with the way a town is run. He serves on the […]

Supporting Everyday People

By Jane Melanson and Shelley Silver

We are residents of Danbury and are writing in support of Mario Ratzki’s re-election as State Representative. We need more people like him in our local government. He works hard for the towns he represents. We love that Mario participated in a group to support broadband expansion. Yes, it is a work in progress, and […]

Thanks for the Paving

By Bob and Leslie Irving

Many thanks to Representative Mario Ratzki for recovering much-needed flood plain money and for the State Route 127 paving upgrades. Re-elect Mario on Tuesday, November 4! Bob and Leslie Irving Salisbury

Responsive to Our Needs

By Ruby Hill

Last weekend was the 100th Grange Fair Day in Danbury. Mario Ratzki walked in the parade, ran in the bed race, and was probably present at several other events. The next day he came to our Old Home Day church service in South Danbury. Mario has helped us in our broadband expansion efforts, and he […]
