AFP Action: Pappas Admits Tax Relief for NH Families Is on the Chopping Block

gbartlinski on July 21, 2026

Concord, NH – Last week, U.S. Senate candidate Chris Pappas told a national television audience on MS NOW’s “The Last Word,” that a Democrat-controlled Senate would block the current tax rates from being extended. For New Hampshire, that means families would have paid an additional $3,472 a year. 

AFP Action Senior Advisor Sarah Scott released the following statement: 

“Chris Pappas confirmed he’s running for a Senate majority whose own agenda would let Americans’ taxes go back up. That’s $3,472 a year for the average Granite State family if those rates expire, which he voted against extending. New Hampshire families need a senator who fights to lower their costs, not one who votes to raise them, and that senator is John Sununu. 

“Sununu has a record of fighting to cut taxes, reining in wasteful federal spending, and reducing regulatory burdens on New Hampshire small businesses. AFP Action is proud to stand behind Sununu, who is committed to lowering costs and will restore common sense policymaking to Washington.”

Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) has led the charge in holding Pappas accountable on affordability, including its July ad campaign spotlighting Pappas’ record of putting Washington over Granite Staters. 

As Democratic Socialists “Rally” in Detroit, AFP Action and Mike Rogers Bring Common-Sense Solutions to Macomb County

Kaitlin Zurdosky on July 18, 2026

MACOMB, MI — While Bernie Sanders, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and Abdul El-Sayed want Michiganders to believe more government control is the answer to their problems, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) is on doorsteps in Macomb County with a different answer: Mike Rogers’ vision for a Michigan with lower energy bills and more jobs in the auto industry, built by Michiganders instead of dictated by Washington.

Tim Golding, senior advisor to AFP Action Michigan, released the following statement:

“While national progressive figures fly into Detroit to sell Michiganders on the same failed socialist ideas that have hollowed out cities and driven up costs across the country, we’re on the ground in Macomb County – talking with real voters about what actually works.

“Mike Rogers understands that Michigan families need lower energy bills, good-paying jobs in the auto and defense industries, and skilled trades training for their kids. And that doesn’t come from bigger government.

“Give more power and control to Washington, or lower energy costs and bring manufacturing jobs back to Michigan? That’s the choice in front of Michigan voters. We’re confident they’ll choose jobs and lower bills over more government control.”

Today’s AFP Action and LIBRE Action canvassing event in Macomb is part of a broader door-to-door effort across Michigan. Volunteers are talking with voters about energy costs, manufacturing jobs, the price of groceries and gas, and the solutions Mike Rogers is offering to fix them.

AFP Action: Pappas Puts Washington Over Granite Staters

gbartlinski on July 10, 2026

Concord, NH – Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) released a new wave of ads calling out Chris Pappas’ record of putting Washington over New Hampshire and highlighting John Sununu’s independence that Granite Staters can count on to put their interests first.

AFP Action Senior Advisor Sarah Scott said the following:

“Chris Pappas has a record of voting with Progressive Democrats, rubber stamping their party’s agenda that has raised costs for Granite State families and businesses, including voting for the largest tax increase in American history. His actions go against the very principles and values New Hampshire believes in.

“When we knock on doors, we hear time and time again: Granite Staters don’t want Washington politicians who put their party over commonsense solutions that lower costs. AFP Action knows Sununu will put the Granite State first and will deliver on driving down costs by removing burdensome regulations, cutting taxes, and reigning in wasteful spending.”

AFP Action Releases Statement Ahead of Michigan Democrat Senate Debate

Kaitlin Zurdosky on July 7, 2026

Lansing, MI — Ahead of tonight’s Michigan Democrat Senate debate, Americans for Prosperity Action (AFP Action) Senior Advisor for Michigan Tim Golding released the following statement:

“Tonight’s debate will offer Michigan voters a clear window into how Democrats think about the problems facing this state: more Washington, more government control, and more of the same policies that drove up costs in the first place. Haley Stevens and Abdul El-Sayed may disagree on tactics, but they share the same fundamental belief — that the answer to Washington’s failures is more Washington.

“Michigan families know better: the cost of living didn’t spike because government wasn’t involved enough in their lives. It spiked because of runaway spending, burdensome regulations, and energy policies that made everything more expensive. 

“Mike Rogers is running on a different vision for Michigan, one built on lower taxes, less spending, unleashing American energy, and cutting regulations that strangle small businesses. That’s how you put money back in people’s pockets and create the kind of economic opportunity this state has been waiting for.”

“Tonight, voters will watch two candidates argue over how much bigger to make government. Rogers is focused on getting Washington out of the way and letting Michigan thrive.”
