Issue Positions

For Presidential and Congressional candidates who refuse to provide voters with their positions, Vote Smart has researched their public records to determine their likely responses. These issue positions are from 2022.

  • "The right to life is under attack from the radical left in Washington. Matt believes that every life is precious and worth protecting. Pro-abortion Democrats in Washington get more radical every day and want to use taxpayer dollars to fund partial-birth abortions in the United States and overseas." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
  • "God Bless President Trump and all of the attendees at the March for Life today. As the only pro-life candidate in this race, I will work with the President to stand up for the unborn. #nhpolitics" (twitter.com)
  • "Matt knows that government spends too much of your tax dollars wastefully. Working in President Trump's State Department, Matt found billions of dollars in excessive, unnecessary spending and proposed cutting it -- but Congress spent more money anyway. By reducing spending, we can then make President Trump's tax cuts permanent and allow New Hampshire's economy to recover from the impacts of COVID-19." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
  • "We must help our economy recover and thrive by supporting small businesses, cutting taxes, reducing wasteful spending, and bring back critical manufacturing to the United States." (justfacts.votesmart.org)

  • "Unfortunately, instead of standing up for our police, Congress prefers to use our police officers as political punching bags. Nancy Pelosi’s Congress and the radical left voted to strip police of critical protections — including qualified immunity, which protect law enforcement and their families from frivolous lawsuits by the criminals they arrest. Qualified immunity protects good police officers. In New Hampshire, bad actors are held accountable. That’s how our officers are trained and that’s what they believe in." (mattmowers.com)
  • "Since day one, President Trump has put America and our military first. He has restored our strength around the world that was weakened under Barack Obama and worked tirelessly to make sure our military receives the support they deserve. Matt will always work to ensure that our military has the resources necessary to safely protect our country." (justfacts.votesmart.org)

  • "Granite Staters should not be footing the bill to bail out mismanaged cities and states. Federal relief should be there for states and municipalities with COVID related costs associated with the emergency declaration, then the government needs to let states succeed. #nhpolitics" (twitter.com)

  • "As an NRA-member, Matt will always defend Granite Staters' 2nd Amendment Rights. The text of the 2nd amendment is simple -- "the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed." In Congress, Matt will make sure that right is secure." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
  • "Next up in our Pappas Bad Vote Lineup is Chris Pappas’ continued efforts to take away our Second Amendment rights. Pappas votes in lockstep with Nancy Pelosi to take away our #2A rights and has taken tens of thousands of dollars from radical gun control Super PACs. #nhpolitics" (twitter.com)

  • "Matt saw firsthand how dangerous drugs flow over the southern border during his time at the State Department. These illegal drugs flow unchecked into states like New Hampshire, where they have devastated our communities. Matt also saw the impressive results that have occurred with pieces of the wall that have been built so far. The wall works -- and Matt will work with President Trump to ensure it is completed." (justfacts.votesmart.org)
  • "If Biden was serious about immigration, he’d defund sanctuary cities to build the wall #NHPolitics #NH01" (twitter.com)
  • "Joe Biden just stated at the UN that he wants to revive the disastrous Iran Deal — putting America and our allies in danger. More failed foreign policy from Washington that puts America last. #UNGA #NHPolitics" (twitter.com)

  • "The #USMCA is a huge victory for New Hampshire. NH exports $1.1 billion in goods to Canada and Mexico annually and this deal protects our businesses, workers and their families. #nhpolitics" (twitter.com)
  • "Today, President @realDonaldTrump's #USMCA goes into effect. The deal puts American workers and businesses first and holds China accountable. Instead of supporting the agreement & NH workers, Pappas stood with Nancy Pelosi and held it hostage for more than a year. #nhpolitics" (twitter.com)
