DEFEND THE GUARD Passes Out of Committee with OTP

by Carla Gericke 10/11/2023

written by Carla Gericke

Exciting development! The DEFEND THE GUARD legislation made it out of committee with a tie (10:10) which means it goes to the floor with an OTP (OUGHT TO PASS) recommendation.

Huge KUDOS to all the people shepherding this IMPORTANT PEACE INITIATIVE through.

No more deployment of our friends and neighbors without a Congressional declaration of war. It’s the least they can do before sending you to die.

A candidate to make you smile

A couple of weeks ago, I sat down with a constituent from Ward 11 in my Senate District (20, which is Goffstown, and Manchester Wards 3, 4, 10 & 11). This wonderful Letter to the Editor in today’s Union Leader was the result! Thank you, Jennifer, for asking to meet!

"When was the last time you talked politics and found yourself smiling? Well, one look at Carla Gericke’s smile, and you will be! Carla is a wise woman who understands that attitude in life is everything, and her outlook is positive. She realizes power lies where you put your focus, and Carla’s focus is on the betterment of New Hampshire."

"I asked Carla to grab a cup of coffee today, and over our joe, we discussed her love for New Hampshire and what she stands for: limited Constitutional government, peace, preserving the New Hampshire Advantage, lower taxes, and fewer regulations."

Read the whole letter here. I ask for your vote in the primary on September 11th, and of course, on election day on November 6th. Let’s put a Republican back in District 20!

A future senator goes to PorcFest XV

I spent last week in the stunning White Mountains of New Hampshire, one of my favorite places, at one of my favorite events, the 15th annual Porcupine Freedom Festival, hosted by the Free State Project.

Read about my experience at Shire Liberty News.

"The non-aggression principle (stated differently, The Golden Rule) lies at the heart of our movement. We believe hurting and bullying and forcing people to do things against their will under the banner of “the state” (the “collective”) is wrong. We believe the world needs to heal by returning to the principles of individual freedom, where you can do what you want, as long as you don’t hurt others. We believe that unless there is an actual, real life person who was harmed by your actions, there is no crime. We believe in property rights, free markets, peace, love, personal responsibility, and in building strong social bonds within our growing community, and beyond.

If you would like me to come speak at an event in District 20–I’d love to meet you!–please email me at: Carla(at)Carla4NHSenate(dot)com.

Help me win! Donate today!

Follow my campaign on Facebook and Twitter.

Tell a friend or family member in District 20 (Goffstown, Manchester Wards 3, 4, 10 & 11). Word of mouth is a powerful tool!

Thanks for your support! Let’s build a better, more peaceful and prosperous future for all Granite Staters!
