| Governor John Lynch's State of the State Address
Finance
-- Give people a chance to vote and pass a constitutional amendment to allow us to direct more aid to communities with greater needs. it is not good policy to send the same base amount of education aid to every school district before we help the schools that really need it. Yet that is what the Supreme Court has said we must do. That type of approach does not reduce the inequity that exists between schools. It only widens disparities and maintains the status quo.
Safety
-- Enact the Online Child Safety Act to modernize our laws to protect our children from the threats of the 21st century. This Act would Increase penalties for enticing children over the Internet; toughen laws on repeat offenders; and require convicted sex offenders to register their email addresses and online identities.
Postsecondary
-- Help more of our young people go on to higher education.
