Knowing More About a Candidate Helps Voters Make Good Choices

By Kathleen Lauer Rago

It is important to share past achievements to paint a clear picture of a person’s values and work ethics. So let me share a bit about my friend, Natalie Wells.

Did you know that during her term as a legislator she received the “Ebenezer Mudgett Champion of Freedom” Award from New Hampshire Americans for Prosperity? This organization looks for representatives whose votes support free markets, economic growth, and better ways to expand on the New Hampshire Advantage, and she received the award both years!  In 2017, she also received the “Senator Norris Cotton Award” for her volunteer work to help elect Republicans for Merrimack County. In both 2017 and 2018, she received an “A” rating and endorsement from the NRA, BIA (New Hampshire’s Business & Industry Association), Americans for Prosperity, Granite State Taxpayers Association, and an overall score of 100 with New Hampshire’s Cornerstone organization, whose goal is to find legislators that are aligned with family, faith, and freedom.
And just this past August she received an “A” from the Granite State Taxpayer Organization which pledges no new taxes to the state of New Hampshire.

I mention all of this because it is important to know the values of the person you will be voting for in November.  I know, as seen by her past record as a legislator, that she will be your voice to protect your tax dollars, protect your gun rights, protect the unborn, protect our veterans, our seniors, and our officers in blue. She was a business owner for a number of years prior to retiring, so she knows how to fight for employers and employees and knows that increasing their taxes is the wrong way to go. Reducing business regulations and lowering business taxes are what create economic growth in New Hampshire.

As we return to our somewhat “normal lives” coming out of this pandemic, many families are still struggling, whether that is financial or emotional. The strain of teaching our children homework via the computer caused much stress on the parents, grandparents, students, and teachers. Some towns still do not have broadband, and we must do better in that area. Teachers did the best they could under difficult times, but even they know, many kids have slipped through the cracks.  Which is yet another reason why Natalie Wells supports school choice, whether it be public, charter, home, or private school, so no more children fall through the cracks, and families are able to find the best educational fit for their children.

It is important, now more than ever, that we get our New Hampshire Economy back on track. We can do this by opening up businesses, which puts people back to work, providing for their families. During these difficult times, the Democrats in this last session were determined on raising taxes on employers, which would have trickled right back down to families. We don’t need tax-and-spend Democrats in the statehouse, we need common sense and fiscally responsible-minded people, like Natalie Wells. Vote for Natalie on Tuesday, November 3.
