Bryant 'Corky' Messner, Republican

Block grant for Medicaid Messner does not specifically address Medicaid block grants on his website, but he does state, "Relax restrictions on states so that New Hampshire can choose how to best administer its health care dollars."

Eliminate "essential health benefits" Messner does not address essential health benefits on his website, but he does state, "Relax restrictions on states so that New Hampshire can choose how to best administer its health care dollars."

Medicare for All, automatic enrollment "Corky supports a free-market healthcare system that has seen our nation lead the world in care, innovation, and saving lives. He will stand against the socialist system supported by Jeanne Shaheen and Washington Democrats."

Mexican border wall "Let me be clear: it's time to build the wall to stop the flow of drugs. It's time to stop the Washington double-talk and secure the southern border."

"Military-style" firearms ban "Corky believes in the right to bear arms, envisioned by our Founders and protected by our Constitution." "He will fight legislation that would infringe upon the constitutional right of Granite Staters to defend themselves, their families or their home or to engage in hunting or other shooting sports."

Federal right to abortion "Corky Messner is a pro-life candidate. He believes that life begins at conception and that Congress has a responsibility to fight for those who cannot fight for themselves."

Federal minimum wage increase
"This is a state issue. There should be no federal minimum wage."

Federal abortion ban after 24 weeks "Corky is a pro-life candidate that stands with the women of the pro-life movement." "Unlike Senator Shaheen, Corky holds the reasonable approach of supporting increased funding for adoption services and eliminating federal funding for abortion providers, while ensuring that women have access to the healthcare they need. He supports the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (the 20-week or 5-month ban), Protecting Life in Global Health Assistance Policy (formerly the Mexico City Policy) and believes that the Hyde Amendment should be made permanent."

Higher federal tax rate for higher income "Corky believes strongly in individual liberty, economic freedom, low taxes and free market capitalism. He believes the best way the government can help our economy is to get out of the way."

Federal subsidies for renewable energy "As an avid conservationist, I have always believed that we all have a responsibility to take steps to preserve our natural environment, through recycling, responsible stewardship of natural resources, and conserving energy and raw materials. To address climate change, the United States must continue to lead by example. We must continue our efforts under the Clean Air Act to improve air quality and reduce carbon emissions. We must work with industry to create incentives to shift to modern, cleaner manufacturing processes. Finally, we must continue our investments in renewable energy research and development."
