Hundreds turn out for virtual Senate budget hearing


CONCORD — More than 220 people signed up to speak during a virtual Senate public hearing about the proposed next two-year state budget, House Bill 1 and House Bill 2, with callers urging full funding for services for people with developmental disabilities, Medicaid adult dental benefits, school funding and more.
Many also called in to ask the Senate to strip a section in House Bill related to a ban on teaching “divisive concepts,” related to racism and sexism and calling its inclusion a dangerous form of censorship.
Gov. Chris Sununu’s third budget proposal, outlined on Feb. 11, would mean tax cuts, moving the Business Enterprise Tax from .6 down to .55 percent and the rooms and meals tax down from 9 to 8.5 percent, increasing the general fund by 7 percent but not increasing taxes.
