SB 434 is three book bans in a trenchcoat, rehashing a lot of the same language Gov. Ayotte already vetoed in HB 324 but without actually mentioning the word "library" - as if we won't know what this is really about.

SB 33, a book banning bill with dejavu similarities to last year's vetoed HB 324, is up for a vote this week in the NH House. Reach out to your state reps now and urge them to oppose this bill.

Gov. Ayotte's veto of last year's book banning bill, HB 324, was upheld this week thanks to the hard work of freedom to read advocates across New Hampshire. Great job, everyone. Now on to the fight against the next book banning bill, SB 33. indepthnh.org/2025/12/17/n...

Ayotte vetoes Republican-backed public school book ban bill

The book ban bill vetoed by Gov. Kelly Ayotte would have allowed parents to request books, films, and other items that depicted nudity and sexual contact to be removed from their child's school.

This morning, we gathered outside Governor Ayotte’s office for our read-in to protest HB 324, the book ban bill. If passed, HB 324 could create a chilling effect for educators across NH and make it easier to ban books in classrooms and school libraries across our state. #nhpolitics

Yesterday, the NH Senate passed HB 324, a book banning bill that would potentially criminalize teachers for the stories in their classrooms. Over 1300 people signed up to oppose this bill with only 39 in favor. NH wants freedom to read. Contact Gov. Kelly Ayotte and demand a veto.

Fight for freedom to read in New Hampshire schools! Call your state senator before May 15th and urge them to oppose HB 324. This bill would subject educators to potential criminal charges for the books in their classroom and override local control over school library collections.

Massachusetts @authorsabb.bsky.social contingent at the Boston #HandsOff rally/march. Quite a few librarians came so speak to us. One even asked to take a photo with us.

Also, I want it clear that I've yet to see a sales boost or increased interest in my book despite it being one of the few we know has been banned in New Hampshire–where I'll be giving a talk on censorship next month, btw. Stop with that lie. What actually happens is people lose access to a book.
