Today, New Hampshire Democratic Party Chair Ray Buckley released the following statement after the Republican Legislature passed Chris Sununu’s extreme, anti-choice budget:
“Chris Sununu just pushed through the most extreme and anti-choice New Hampshire budget in New Hampshire history. Chris Sununu is imposing an abortion ban and mandatory ultrasounds on New Hampshire women. But this partisan budget doesn’t just attack women’s reproductive freedom, it also cuts funding for public schools and will raise property taxes — and will be toxic with New Hampshire voters.
“This budget is an attack on reproductive rights, our doctors, taxpayers, and schools — and we will spend the next year and a half holding Governor Sununu and Republicans accountable for it.”
