They are your kids, not the state’s

Deputy Majority Leader Statement on Manchester Jane Doe Case Dismissal

Concord, NH – Deputy Majority Leader Jim Kofalt (R-Wilton) released the following statement after the New Hampshire Supreme Court upheld a lower court ruling that dismissed a lawsuit by a Manchester mother whose child was “transitioned” by the Manchester public school system without her knowledge or consent.

“Earlier today, the New Hampshire Supreme Court decided against every single parent in our state.  By dismissing a case in which a student was “transitioned” in the Manchester public school system without her parent’s knowledge or consent, the courts have sent a clear message that public school officials can keep secrets from parents.  This is just wrong.  This decision underscores our need to expand Education Freedom Accounts, pass a Parental Bill of Rights, and put control back in the hands of parents, where it belongs. If New Hampshire Republicans win a solid majority in November, expect that to happen in 2025.”
