Ripe for abuse at small scale.

I support SB 633 because it strengthens arts funding mechanisms and improves administrative clarity. Supporting the arts benefits communities and enhances cultural and economic vitality.

You have no constitutional basis for giving away public money for this purpose.

Cory StoneOpposeDover, NHfor MyselfMar 9, 2026

Voluntary or not, I do not support adding additional administrative resources to manage another program for the Arts. We have much larger issues that the state needs to address.
