NH Governor Expresses Frustration With Lawmakers

NH Governor Kelly Ayotte is expressing frustration with state lawmakers as negotiations on a new budget continue.

Yesterday, the Senate Ways and Means Committee adopted revenue projections for the next two years that are lower than hers.

That means the Senate will not be able to restore funds in the budget that’d be used towards the governor’s priorities.

Democrats and Republicans say they have concerns about the economy but Governor Ayotte disagrees with Republicans who voted with Democrats for lower revenue projections.
