Over the last two legislative years, the SEA and SEIU learned which public officials and candidates stood with public employees in New Hampshire, and who chose another course. The job of our
Political Education Committee is to look at those records, and follow a
thorough process to determine who we should support as a union.
After several months of interviews, research and debate on the issues that matter to SEA families, the candidates below were recommended by the SEA Political Education Committee to the SEA Board of Directors and overwhelmingly approved for recommendation to the members of the SEA.
