NHDP Chairs past and present came out swinging against Papa Sununu's latest temper tantrum. Two examples:
Ray (Monitor):
What did Sununu and Republican leaders do during the budget process? They called for unspecified cuts at the 11th hour, which would have shifted costs to municipalities and increased local property taxes by over $100 million dollars. This kind of irresponsible behavior should come as no surprise from Sununu's party - after all, he raised taxes significantly during his tenure as governor to pay for a 27.5 percent increase in state spending.
Kathy (UL):
There also is a significant difference in attitude on issues relating to the environment. Mr. Sununu is still arguing that climate change is a "phony crisis" based on bad science. Jeanne Shaheen signed the Clean Power Act, requiring reductions in pollutants, such as mercury and carbon dioxide. John Lynch worked to ban the burning of toxic construction debris in our state and to increase the use of renewable energy sources to 25 percent by 2025.
Y'all know I have my moments with the gov - particularly on pledge politics.
But on balance - there's no question which party moved our state forward in recent history. I mean, the other team offered us Craig Benson.
