Concord, N.H. - Yesterday, it was reported that President Trump called Haiti, El Salvador, and African nations "shithole countries," asking why the United States welcomes immigrants from these countries. New Hampshire Senate Democratic Leader Jeff Woodburn issued the following statement in response: “I’m calling on Governor Sununu to condemn the disparaging comments made by President Trump. These comments, made by the head of the Republican Party, are a direct attack on New Hampshire’s vibrant new American communities and the diversity that makes us a strong state and nation. I hope Governor Sununu will do the right thing and immediately condemn the President’s statement.”
