On a recent cool, sunny November morning, over 175 registered runners and walkers lined up to support Mary’s Dogs Rescue and Adoption at their 9th annual Run and Walk. It was cold for spectators but just right for the runners, walkers and their dogs.
To the Editor: As we get closer and closer to the elections, one thing could not be clearer for many
I have served as a state representative, state senator, school board member, and community leader. Now, I’m running for Executive Council to stand up for the people of our district and state.
The battle for public transparency in Nashua has been relentless, with the city’s persistent resistance at its core. A significant barrier is the prevailing culture in City Hall, which asserts that the city, not the citizens, owns the records.
As elected aldermen, we’ve had the privilege of serving Nashua through both its triumphs and its challenges. Recently, our city has hit a rough patch that has left many residents frustrated and searching for answers. From surprise property revaluations to school busing issues and the abrupt closure of Stellos Stadium, it’s been challenging. As leaders, we need to address these concerns and take ownership where necessary, and ensure better communication and accountability.

For decades, I have been involved with many other advocates in efforts to end homelessness in NH and worked for many years in agencies involved with housing and low-income people. I grew up in and have worked in Manchester. I have also worked all over the state including Nashua, where I live now. Since homelessness is caused by multiple economic, social, and health-related factors, it is not easy to find effective solutions.
