We Are All Connected
As Granite Staters, the issues we care about are connected because we are connected.
Defending Democratic Values
In New Hampshire, democracy is a living tradition built on civic engagement, grassroots activism, and a deep respect for every person’s voice. Carleigh’s commitment to strengthening democratic institutions comes from a lifetime spent in service of the idea that democracy is something every one of us builds together…

Protecting Public Education
NH is a state with a long history of amazing public schools. Everyone in each town and city pitches in through local property taxes to provide the best education possible to the children in their communities. Now those schools are under threat by voucher programs and inequitable funding.
The Manchester Public School District is a perfect example…

Fighting for Working Families
Carleigh believes Congress must deliver for all our families: protect and expand Social Security, Medicare, Medicaid, and the Affordable Care Act.
We must make healthcare, childcare, eldercare, and housing truly affordable and accessible for everyone. To ensure that healthcare is recognized as a human right, Carleigh will push for a single-payer healthcare system that includes coverage for mental health, vision, and dental.
She calls for a tax system that lifts up working families and supports raising the minimum wage, strengthening unions, and enacting overdue criminal justice reform.
Capping Childcare at 7%
Across NH, the cost of childcare has exploded. The New Hampshire Fiscal Policy Institute found that NH families lost over $177 million dollars in wages as a result of a lack of access to affordable childcare. The average cost of sending two children to daycare is $32,000 a year!
Ensuring Freedom For All
In the Granite State, freedom means the right to make your own choices and to access the resources you need to live a safe and fulfilling life. In Congress, Carleigh will fight to restore, defend, and boldly expand our basic freedoms: the right to access comprehensive reproductive health care, the right to bodily autonomy, and the right to live, learn, and love without discrimination or fear. Carleigh stands against all laws that target people based on their gender, identity, sexuality, or race.
Above all, Carleigh’s leadership is defined by service, independence, and a relentless belief that we rise together when government is truly of, by, and for the people. She’ll work every day to ensure no one gets left behind, in New Hampshire or across America.
Guaranteeing Access to Reproductive Care
Around the first district, our freedoms are under assault, not just from a lawless Trump administration, but by our state government in Concord. In Greenland, the Joan G. Lovering Health Center is providing for their patients’ sexual and reproductive health despite the lack of a supportive partner at the state or federal level…. Read Full Issue Statement +
Running with Integrity
Carleigh knows nobody is above the law—not politicians, not corporations. Carleigh will not hold individual stocks and will push for legislation banning politicians (and their spouses) from buying and trading stocks while in office.
As a candidate, she is not accepting corporate PAC money. On day one, she’ll push to get dark money out of politics and for reforms for both Congress and the Courts—working to restore trust, transparency, and people-powered democracy.
Taking On Scammers
In communities across the district, people are losing millions of dollars to internet scammers. Carleigh is partnering with local government leaders like US Army Veteran and forensic accountant Aleks Ring to educate people, especially seniors, about how to protect themselves from online fraudsters…
