My bill to ban Sanctuary Cities in New Hampshire has passed the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee. We are banning Sanctuary Cities in New Hampshire. The voters spoke loud and clear about avoiding Massachusetts policies - we listened.
We're pleased to report that HB511, banning dangerous sanctuary cities, has passed the Criminal Justice committee. It will move onto the full House with a favorable recommendation. Criminal Justice Republicans all backed this critical bill.

We are getting closer to banning sanctuary & "welcoming" cities in NH. “We're passing this bill so that there's no sanctuary in New Hampshire,” he said. “There's no welcoming in New Hampshire. If you are here illegally, we don't want you to be in the state of New Hampshire.”.

I filed and introduced legislation to ban sanctuary cities in New Hampshire. We’ve seen the horrors large scale sanctuary polices have brought to neighboring states. Illegal aliens should NOT feel welcomed in New Hampshire.
Today, House Republicans introduced HB511, which will ban dangerous sanctuary cities policies that put Granite Staters at risk. Republicans are stepping up to protect our communities by refusing to turn a blind eye to illegal immigration and catastrophic sanctuary policies

The only people who should be “welcomed” to New Hampshire are those that are here legally. We don’t need to welcome illegal aliens and when we pass our Sanctuary City ban, those here illegally will no longer be welcomed in any NH town, city, or county. They all need to go home.

All are welcome to move to Salem, New Hampshire and be part of the next big thing.
I know that it’s important to bring our conservative message to blue states, . but if just 25,000 New England Republicans move to New Hampshire, . you’ll win 4 electoral votes, pick up 2 House seats, & 2 Senate seats. We must win big in 2026.

I just looked this bill up. Beyond establishing an Income Tax, it raises taxes on employers, meals, and rooms as well. This would increase taxes in NH by $315 MILLION A YEAR. Removing hundreds of millions from our economy annually will not solve any problems. HELL NO!.
Would you look at that!. The @NHDems have filed a bill to impose an income tax on Granite Staters. #NHPolitics

Joyce is lying. She proposed a sales tax in Manchester. She would 100% sign a state income or sales tax into law if the legislature sent her one. We just can’t trust Joyce Craig and Democrats on taxes. #NHPolitics #nhgov.

Hey New Hampshire - do you want higher taxes with Joyce Craig or lower taxes with @KellyAyotte? The choice is clear. #NHPolitics #nhgov.
.@JoyceCraigNH would run New Hampshire like Manchester — which means higher taxes for families & small businesses. We can't afford Joyce's Massachusetts model in the corner office. As Governor, I'll oppose new taxes & hold the line against an income or sales tax. #nhpolitics
