Sign Petition to remove D. LeBrun


Donald L. LeBrun (NH District 32 Ward 5 Nashua State Representative): Immediate resignation from the NH House of Representatives 

Citizens of New Hampshire are asking for Donald LeBrun’s immediate resignation from the NH House of Representatives for his comments at 2/12/13 Health and Human Services Committee Hearing. Donald LeBrun is quoted as saying, "Rather than spend money on people with disabilities we have another choice, Voluntary Euthanasia." This distasteful comment does not represent Mr. LeBrun's Ward, District or the State of New Hampshire which he is supposed to be representing.
