What NH Democrats would do if they win the State House majority in 2024
House Democratic Leader Matt Wilhelm of Manchester announced late last week the “Freedom & Affordability” agenda, outlining the New Hampshire House Democratic Caucus’s top priorities for the 2025-2026 legislative term. The agenda focuses on many key issues, ranging from codifying abortion rights, providing property tax relief, and protecting New Hampshire communities from harmful chemicals like PFAS.
Wilhelm described the agenda as a response to the concerns voiced by Granite Staters, highlighting the Democratic Party’s commitment to both defending personal liberties and reducing everyday financial burdens.
“Our Freedom & Affordability Agenda is designed to tackle the biggest challenges facing Granite Staters,” Wilhelm said. “From ensuring people have control over their own health care decisions to making life more affordable for working families, these initiatives reflect our priorities for the upcoming legislative term.”
One of the agenda’s centerpieces is the codification of abortion rights in state law. New Hampshire currently stands as the only New England state without abortion protections on the books, a concern that has only grown since the U.S. Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade.
