CONCORD â With no fanfare and no courtesy photo of him signing House Bills 1 and 2, Republican Gov. Chris Sununu issued a news release Friday saying he signed both into law.
Sununu issued a one sentence statement Friday upon making the controversial $13.5 billion budget law after the House and Senate both voted to pass them Thursday.
The bills drew fire because of the non-financial measures they included in the budget such as an abortion ban after 24 weeks of pregnancy, school vouchers, and a provision to prevent the teaching of racism and sexism.
âHistoric tax cuts, property tax relief, and Paid Family Medical Leave delivered all in one sweeping action is a win for every citizen and family in this state,â Sununuâs press release said.
