New Hampshire Free State Project
Goffstown's five state reps vote with the extreme Free State agenda at least 97.5% of the time.
What is the Free State Project?
The Free State Project is a political migration movement founded in 2001 with a simple but ambitious idea: recruit thousands of libertarians to move to a single U.S. state and concentrate their political influence there.
In 2003, organizers chose New Hampshire as their target.
Their goal wasn’t just to participate in politics—it was to reshape it.
20,000 participants signed a pledge to move to New Hampshire and work to advance a society built on minimal government and maximum individual liberty.
Free State Project goals
The New Hampshire Free State Project is working to defund and dismantle large parts of our government over time.
Recruit
Recruit activists to concentrate political power in NH
Expand
Win local offices, then expand influence statewide
Cut
Cut state funding for public services
Downshift
Shift costs to towns and local property taxpayers
Privatize
Privatize or eliminate government programs
Deregulate
Reduce regulations and oversight
Real-world impact on NH communities
New Hampshire’s system already leans heavily on property taxes, which make up the majority of state and local tax revenue.
Policies that reduce state-level taxes or spending can have a downstream effect:
-
Less state funding for services
-
Greater reliance on local funding
-
Increased pressure on property taxes
This dynamic shifts costs from the state level onto towns and homeowners.
Free Staters want our local costs to be so painful that average people will demand severe cuts to local budgets. That's the goal — less government, more privatization.
Goffstown reps vote with the extreme Free State Agenda
While historically leaning Republican, voter data in New Hampshire shows Goffstown falls squarely in the purple political range now. Our extreme representatives do not reflect the moderate, independent values of our community.
Out of 160 House roll call votes in the 2026 session, our five representatives voted with the extreme Free State Agenda at least 97.5% of the time.

Goffstown reps have recently voted to...
Reduce the Business Enterprise Tax (again), giving businesses a break while residents make up the gap
Remove the income cap on the school voucher program, giving tax dollars to wealthy families for private schools
Kill the program that helped towns pay for new housing infrastructure to alleviate the housing crisis
Create/increase 125 state fees average people pay (like vehicle registrations)
Implement a statewide school budget cap, taking away our control of our tax dollars
Ignore court mandates to properly fund public education and reduce reliance on local property taxes
We deserve lawmakers who serve our community—not an agenda that raises our taxes and guts the services that make Goffstown special.
