If we want true representation then this bill MUST be passed. When election is largely only available to those who can afford not to work then this is not true representation. The working class is the backbone of this country and therefore this state - to bar them from being elected and participating in government is a gross negligence by this legislative body and a disservice to the state of NH and all her residents. We must make sure this body is truly representative of all and that good work be completed, not just by those who are able to do so by luck or station in life, but by the best official elected by the people. By barring the working class from running due to fear or reality of losing their income we shrink the pool by which the public is able to choose their representation which implies no representation at all.
