Positions

LiberalConservative

Economy & Taxes

Public records show at least one instance of Representative Jared Sullivan supporting excise taxes on legalized marijuana, but there is no clear, comprehensive statement or platform located describing his broader positions on tax policy or major federal tax changes.

Immigration & Border

Supports continued immigration enforcement but rejects abolishing ICE as realistic; calls for oversight and accountability for enforcement actions and criticizes expansions of enforcement without accountability. Positions favor reforming enforcement and limiting unchecked expansion rather than pursuing maximal restrictionist policies.

Show more

Abortion & Reproductive Rights

The candidate supports protecting and expanding abortion access in New Hampshire, including votes to repeal the state’s 24-week abortion ban and to place protections for abortion (including medication abortion) into the constitution/statute up to a 24-week threshold. Voting records show consistent pro-choice votes on related House measures.

Climate & Energy

Supports state-level climate action including a carbon plan to access federal climate funding, and promotes clean energy like municipal solar as cost-effective; critiques climate-change denial that blocks legislation. Emphasizes moderate, investment-focused approaches rather than phasing out fossil fuels immediately.

Public Safety & Guns

Supports expanded gun regulations including background checks, waiting periods, and consideration of extreme risk protection orders while emphasizing federal action to address interstate movement of firearms. Has voted in favor of bills to expand background checks, consider red flag laws, and establish waiting periods.

News

AINews Summary
Last updatedMay 19, 2026

Jared Sullivan is in the news as a candidate in the run-up to the 2026 midterms, with coverage focused on the broader fight for control of Congress. Recent reports say Democrats have been gaining ground in special and state legislative elections, including several seat flips and strong showings in Pennsylvania, which could help candidates like Sullivan. The biggest policy issue in the background is the GOP-backed SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship for voter registration and is drawing sharp Democratic opposition.
