Millions of dollars will soon flow to local governments in the Monadnock Region, thanks to the federal coronavirus relief bill passed last month. Cheshire County expects to receive more than $14 million, with an estimated $7.5 million on top of that going to the county’s 23 municipalities. Additional money is earmarked for local education.
To help make sense of it all, the county government has hired a part-time point person, attorney and former N.H. Rep. William Pearson of Keene.
“This is one of the first times we’ve seen this kind of money come through the area without the kinds of strings that were attached on something like the CARES Act,” Pearson told the county commissioners at a March 24 meeting, shortly after his hiring.

After the Senate defeated a last-ditch attempt by some of Biden s fellow Democrats to raise the federal minimum wage, work on his first major legislative package since taking office in January ground to a halt for hours as senators met behind closed doors to find a way forward.
