What are our "Representatives" thinking ?
Lebanon is losing $ $382,372 in State revenue ! Where do our "Reps" think the money is going to come from ? You know...I know....it will be added to the already excessive burden on the backs of Lebanon property owners.
Towns in NH vote at Town meetings for July to June budgets so they had the chance to hear about the loss of State revenues before they passed their budgets. Most cities however vote early in the year for January to December calendar year budgets like Lebanon does. Why is that important ? Because when we passed our budget it included that $ 300,00 plus dollars in State revenue so now if the State budgets passes in its current form we will be halfway through a budget with a $ 300,000 hole in it.
We are all watching every dime, cutting corners, making do and doing without to keep our budgets under control and within our means. Meanwhile our "representatives" have gone to Concord and forgotten all about us back home. The State budget is out of control and our "reps" are balancing it on the backs of taxpayers. Who is watching out for you ? Who is covering your back and protecting your interests ?
We need a Representative that will look at the State budget and proposed taxes and think about how they will effect the taxpayers in LEBANON. We need a Representative that will consider every ptential new law, rule or regulation and think about how it will effect the residents and business owners in LEBANON.
I would like to be that person. I would like people to know that they have a neighbor looking out for them in Concord.
We can’t afford to let Concord continue to SPEND while we pinch pennies ?
I ask for your support and your VOTE on June 2nd.

Congratulations to Merilinda Garcia on her Victory !
Yesterday the PEOPLE of New Hampshire in Salem/Windham sent a clear message to the media and the legislators in Concord. By a 63% margin they cast their votes for Merilinda Garcia in a special election. Marilinda ran on a platform of smaller government and less spending and the people agreed.
With Congress and the administration in Washington, DC spending at an alarming trillion dollar level our citizens let their voices be hear that here in New Hampshire, we can't take anymore. We need to set an example for the nation and get our spending under control. Local, State and Federal officials WORK FOR THE PEOPLE and it is up to us to elect people that represent our beliefs, values and fiscal thinkig.
My two young children, and your children too, will be paying for the trillions of dollars in "stimulus" that this administration has spent in just its first 100 days. What will the next 4 years bring?
The people of our Country and the State of New Hampshire that we all hold so dear are capable of doing great things. We can set the bar and show that it IS POSSIBLE to get spending and taxes under control and return control of the government back over to the people as it's supposed be.
Do you believe in our State and our Country? How important is it to you?
I am asking for your help. Contact me TODAY to get involved.
Friends,
Take a good look at our Country and our State. Does it look like you remember when you were a kid growing up. Have things changed for the better? Are our kids going to have the life we want them to have as they grow up?
It doesn't do any good to whine to our friends, familiy or co-workers. We can't change anything by yelling at the TV when we watch the news ! It is time that we all stand up and take action.
I need your help if I am going to get elected to try to work for our future and our children's future. I need you to make phone calls, pass out flyers, wave signs at passing cars, knock on doors and even donate to my campaign if you are at all able. I need your support in any way that you are able to give it. Think of it as an investment into the future of our State and the future of our families.
We can do this ! I know it means enough to me to step up and run for office. I hope that it means enough to you to help me !
