Open Letter to Fox News And
June 10, 2015 Mr. Roger Ailes, President Fox News Channel 1211 Avenue of the Americas, 2nd Floor New York, NY 10036 Mr. Reince Priebus, Chairman Republican National Committee 310 First Street, SE Washington, DC 20003 Dear Mr. Ailes and Chairman Priebus, We are writing to express concern over the recent announcement by Fox News to limit the number of Republican candidates to ten individuals in the first televised presidential debate on August 6, 2015. We urge you to reconsider the criteria and to design a debate that will allow voters to hear from a more diverse and inclusive group of candidates who have filed to run for president. As you know, the First in the Nation New Hampshire Primary plays a pivotal role in selecting our nominees for president. Historically, it has been the responsibility of early primary and caucus states to closely examine and winnow the field of candidates, and it is not in the electorate’s interest to have TV debate criteria supplant this solemn duty. To do so would undermine the very nature of our process and the valuable service that states like New Hampshire provide to voters across the country. It is understandable that a large field presents logistical and broadcast challenges, and that Fox News is seeking to provide a forum in which candidates can be provided enough time to substantively communicate on the issues. However, the proposed limitations are unnecessarily narrow and risk eliminating potentially viable candidates based on unreliable national polling that is rarely predictive of primary election outcomes. Any metric used to select the top ten candidates based on public polling this early in the nominating process would make it impossible to ensure fairness.

New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 (2014)
New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 (2014) Title of Bill: Senate Bill 367 Purpose: A 4.2 cents-per-gallon motor fuel increase, dedicated to the state’s transportation system for use in resurfacing and reconstruction on secondary roadways, municipal bridges, and Interstate 93.i Status of Amendment: Passed New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 Signed into law: May 20, 2014 Senate House FOR 15 193 AGAINST 9 141 History State Gas Tax The gas tax in New Hampshire had not been increased since 1991, when the 16 cents-per-gallon rate was raised to 18 cents; all of the revenue produced by the gas tax in New Hampshire is directed toward the Highway Fund.ii Gas Tax Distribution & Transportation Funding Sources New Hampshire requires all Highway Fund revenue be allocated to only highway-related purposes. The Highway Fund is comprised of revenue generated by the state gas tax, motor vehicle registration fees, and plate fees. Each cent of the state gas tax generates approximately $8.4 million, of which 12 percent ($1 million) is distributed to the Block Grant Aid for cities and towns.iii vi Need New Hampshire has close to 17,000 miles of state and town roads, turnpikes and interstate highways. Municipalities own and maintain almost 70 percent—or 11,865 miles—of these roadways. Of the 3,795 bridges in the state, municipalities own and maintain 1,685 bridges (44 percent). Prior to the passage of SB 367, these municipalities relied on state and federal funding sources to make improvements. With support from these sources declining and only two significant sources of
