state house watch - march 8, 2021

Maggie Fogarty and Grace Kindeke of the New Hampshire Program of the American Friends' Service Committee return this week with their guests Phil Sletten of the NH Fiscal Policy Institute and Christina Pretorius of Reaching Higher NH. Their discussions are around this first year of the budget biennium and the policy implications of budget decisions, particularly around human services and education. We include brief clips from the testimony offered at the committee hearing on access to drivers licenses for undocumented residents.

Some of the bills mentioned are:
SB130, HB20 school vouchers
HB544 anti devicive education
HB587 citizenship markers on driver licenses
HB328 access to drivers licenses
