The New Hampshire Liberty Alliance (NHLA) is an advocacy group that supports candidates for state and local office who favor small government, personal freedoms, and libertarian principles. Though allied with the Free State Project, NHLA is a legally separate organization.

The NHLA grades every state legislator’s floor votes on individual-liberty issues using a scale from A+ to CT (“Constitutional Threat,” its lowest rating). It has just released its ratings for 2026. https://www.nhliberty.org/…/07/Liberty-Rating-2026.pdf

A high NHLA rating signals strong alignment with the Free State/Liberty Alliance agenda —Low ratings go to legislators who don’t share those priorities. Most Democrats receive an F or CT — a designation many wear as a badge of honor.

Below are the current Grafton County GOP representatives in our House districts. Look for their names and ratings. There is one A+, lots of A’s, one A- and one B+.

Thirty years ago, Sue Almy launched a successful write-in campaign, becoming the first Democrat elected to represent her New Hampshire House district. This spring, she stepped down after an extraordinary career, leaving a legacy of legislation addressing addiction, justice, impaired driving, and tobacco prevention. She was also a steadfast advocate for land conservation and affordable housing.

Sue is perhaps best known for her leadership on the House Ways and Means Committee, serving as chair during the great recession and as ranking member throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Her ability to thoughtfully navigate complex fiscal issues while building consensus among committee members earned her deep respect from colleagues on both sides of the aisle.

We are profoundly grateful to Sue for her decades of dedicated public service and the lasting impact she has made on New Hampshire. Thank you, Sue.

We are planning a party for Sue in late September, stay tuned.

Definitely worth a read. See how they reframe issues like immigration and climate. “Build, baby, build” instead of “drill, baby, drill”.

“It’s about understanding that people need a sense of personal and economic security before they will support the changes progressives are calling for.”
