To the Editor:
Senator Gannon does not have your back! We must take issue with the Letter to the Editor of 7/2/21 by Senators Morse and Bradley.
Senator Gannon supported reducing state revenues by hundreds of millions of dollars into the future resulting in reduction of vital services and downshifting of expenses to local taxpayers. The letter hails the accomplishment of decreased state spending but also increased spending. So, which is it? These spending schemes do not add up and it’s your taxes that are affected.
In addition, the Republican education budget supported by Senator Gannon maintains the inequitable support for public education affecting property poor towns while permitting local tax dollars to support private religious education through the “Education Savings Accounts.” That’s not the New Hampshire way.
