Matt’s vision to protect the New Hampshire Advantage.
Matt sits on the House Science, Technology, and Energy Committee as well as the Criminal Justice & Public Safety Committee and the Long-Term Seacoast Commission on Drinking Water.
Issues:
Science, Technology, & Energy Policy – A Wild Gulf of Maine, A Nuclear NH
Every energy source is worth considering in the 21st century, but I oppose the industrialization of the Gulf of Maine. I support the exploration of small modular nuclear technology and importing oil & natural gas from PA into NH. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ETAxSvLmFEU
Health, Vitality & Food Freedom: At Sea & Ashore
If you don’t know how to grow your own food and catch your own fish, you’re impoverished and dependent on those who do. Overregulation of American fisheries will impede the ability of the next generation to feed themselves for life. A localized logistics network is necessary to make it through the next pandemic. We as a country cannot afford to lose our commercial fishing skillset and billionaires buying up acres of farmland (and housing) does not give me confidence for the future. We only produce 15% of the food we eat in NH and the Gulf of Maine is much more viable as a food source rather than an energy source. It’s been years since I’ve had any sort of vaccine and I don’t think we necessarily need fluoride in the water, chemicals in the air, porn in our minds or hard drugs on our streets. In other agricultural concerns, I support home grow & decriminalization of cannabis.
Coastal Resiliency & Disaster Preparedness:
With 2 FEMA declared flood disasters hitting the seacoast in 2024, I support Defend the Guard so every resource is available to our community.
The Family:
Big families. Small government. Marriage is an institution created by God & I support restoring the primacy of marriage and family and intergenerational wealth and care as the foundational unit of the polity – because family is the origin of what we have in common, and the purpose of that thing we call society. And without that commonality – we have nothing in common in a polity. There’s only two genders, and men don’t belong in women’s sports. I will continue to support the formation of a House Special Investigative Committee, with full subpoena power for the investigation of abuse at Family Court and DCYF. Please sign the petition. I oppose MAID and understand that life begins at conception. It is inconclusive how popular the current abortion law is in NH.
Protecting American Sovereignty & Identity:
Access to American culture is not a human right and diversity is not a strength. The national territory is the property of the nation and if America is just an idea, you wouldn’t have to travel here to become an American, you could just go to a library. Demographics is destiny and a country that does not enforce it’s borders is no longer a country. If someone aides a foreign power to invade their own nation, this is called treason, so why do we tolerate those who endorse and facilitate mass immigration?
“Warning out of town” – Victims of illegal alien violence can no longer be ignored. I support the repatriation and oppose licensure of illegal aliens in the United States to their homelands, as well as an immigration moratorium. Individuals and groups are unequal in ability, potential, experience, and circumstance. I support our Northern Border Alliance. I oppose UN Agenda 2030, Sharia Law, selling land to the Chinese and I will refuse any offers of AIPAC funding.
Federalism:
Government is a social construct, and is only as good as the quality of the people it represents. The Federal Government is a creation of the several States and it’s time to de-politicize, professionalize, and shrink the Continental Government to it’s original purpose of Defense, Guarantee of a Republican Government and Rule of Law by Natural Law, Insurance, Trade Policy, and Resolution of Disputes between the States. I will work to optimize existing government bodies and cut unnecessary government spending. Liberty is a much needed ingredient in order to enable cultural flourishing in the face of the largest government w/the largest debt in history.
As a supporter of self-determination and state sovereignty, I believe that Nullification and Interposition are the best tactics for enforcing federalism between D.C. and the states when disputes arise. I am a member of the Tenth Amendment Center as well as the John Birch Society. I oppose selective service compliance and generally oppose an Article V Convention of States, but believe it’s still a worthwhile debate.
Self Defense & Firearms:
The West is defined by the Militia of Sovereign Men. New Hampshire has been ranked as the #1 firearms friendly state. Let’s keep it that way. I oppose any attempt at gun control and Red Flag Laws. Our district borders a state that is not 2A-Friendly, and I believe that the stewardship of the 2nd Amendment, as well as the entire Bill of Rights – is not a negotiation. I am a lifetime member of both the NRA and the 2nd Amendment Foundation & I have received ratings of A(q) with the NRA and A*S from NH Firearms Coalition.
Education & Empowering Parental Rights
Actual quote is from Sir William Francis Butler in Charles George Gordon
The innocence of children must be protected at school and I believe that parents are the ultimate arbiters of the type of education their children should receive, whether it be public, private, or homeschool. I was once a public school substitute teacher and believe that adherence to a one-size-fits-all educational system hampers student performance & growth. We still don’t know the long terms effects the shutdowns had on students. I believe a quality primary & secondary education should concentrate on promoting the academic achievement and personal responsibility of students by training the whole person in physical fitness, mindfulness, manners, ethics, and basic life skills including basic finance, contracts, family, economics and business, so that we are all prepared for the current world.
Grow Jobs & the Economy, Lower Taxes & Spending
We must lower the property taxes that people are paying and I will oppose any attempt at a sales, income, or a re-introduction of the Interest & Dividends Tax. I support the right to work, lowering the Business Enterprise Tax (BET), and eliminating medical exclusionary zones and the legalization of direct-pay medical facilities. Inflation is a form of taxation & we must enact comprehensive economic, financial, retirement reforms restoring the emphasis of policy and economy to the interests of the laboring, working, middle, and upper middle classes and ending predatory disparities in returns on citizenship. In the long term, I support competing currencies (including cryptocurrency), sound money, and a public bank for NH. I oppose Central Bank Digital Currency (CBDC) and yes, we must End both the Fed & the IRS. I have received a “Gold” score from Granite State Taxpayers.
