Board Positions

Have you ever thought about serving on the NHLA Board of Directors? It’s a great way to take a leadership role in promoting liberty in New Hampshire.

Liberty Dinner Recap

The 2010 NHLA Liberty Dinner at The Chateau Restaurant in Manchester, N.H. was a huge success.  There were approximately 150 people in attendance between the VIP Reception and the dinner.

This year’s Legislator of the Year award went to Rep. Carol McGuire of Epsom.  Her unwavering support and continuous push for more liberty, demonstrated by her impeccable voting and attendance record, earned her the highest score and this most prestigious award.  Congratulations!  The runner-up was Rep. Calvin Pratt of Goffstown.

Along with presenting the award, we unveiled NHLA’s 2010 Liberty Rating.  To see how lawmakers scored on this year’s liberty report card, visit http://www.nhliberty.org/2010_liberty_rating.  Please share this with your friends and encourage them to use it as a voter’s guide.

Dear Member,

The NHLA needs your help! We have sent surveys to every candidate running for positions in the New Hampshire State House and Senate. Countless hours were spent tallying the results and deciding which candidates to endorse and support. There are many good candidates running. We will send contributions to approximately 140 of the best (out of 785 candidates).

Thanks to the good folks at Hippo Press for the nice write-up in this week's paper!
Liberty Alliance sees uptick

A minor error has been discovered in the 2010 Liberty Rating, in the Five-Year Honor Roll.  Both Andy Renzullo and Lynne Ober have grades of A in the Liberty Rating, but in the Five-Year Honor Roll, their grades for 2010 are listed incorrectly as A-.  The grades for both should be listed as A for 2010.  Only the Five-Year Honor Roll is affected.

Thanks to Jon Maltz for pointing this out.  Our sincere apologies to Representatives Renzullo and Ober.

This is the seventh annual Liberty Rating issued by the New Hampshire Liberty Alliance. Bills have been carefully selected for inclusion which clearly demonstrate the level of respect our elected representatives show for our individual rights and liberties.

We’d like to congratulate our Legislator of the Year, Carol McGuire, and our Activist of the Year, Matt Simon, for their tireless efforts to promote and enhance liberty in the State of New Hampshire.

Thanks to all who attended the 2010 Liberty Dinner. The Union Leader ran a nice article, Liberty Dinner attracts candidates.

Thanks and Congratulations to Carol McGuire, Legislator of the Year, Matt Simon, Activist of the Year, and to all who helped make this event a tremendous success!
