By Rep. Jim Splaine

Your Help Is Needed!  This coming Thursday, February 5th, there will be four bills up for public hearing about LBGT equality.  Two would reduce our Civil Unions Law, and the other two provide full marriage equality and fighting discrimination based on gender identity.

Kaelin to challenge Roberge

By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com Reporter

State Rep. Mike Kaelin (D-Lyndeborough) says that if elected to the state senate he will be more active than his opponent in the District 9 race, current Sen. Sheila Roberge (R-Bedford).

Kaelin announced last week that he would challenge Roberge.

"Our current senator, though she's been in there awhile, hasn't been very active," Kaelin said. "I belief over this year, and last year, she's sponsored one bill a year. Even as a new state rep. I've been able to do more than that."
