NH House Republicans just passed and sent onto the state Senate a devastating budget that raises costs, cuts services, and fails Granite Staters. It did not have to happen this way. Their nearly decade long tax cutting spree created this situation, and now property tax payers will be left to pick up the bill.
We’ve watched NH lose $1 billion over the past ten years thanks to the Republican led business tax cuts and the newly instituted elimination of the interest and dividends tax. There is no plan to replace this revenue with Republican arguing that lower taxes will lead to an expansion of business. This study by the NH Fiscal Policy Institute says differently.
It is imperative that House Republicans take a step back and reassess Governor Ayotte’s concerning budget proposal, particularly its impact on low-income families and children. At a time when it feels like billionaire CEOs are running the show, Democrats in the State House are going to fight tooth and nail to stand up for working families and do whatever we can to close the gap between the rich and poor so we all have a chance to live free.
When the Republican lead NH Legislature cuts taxes and services, the local towns have to pick up the pieces, meaning higher property taxes and more stress on local services. That’s what the 2026-2027 majority budget is proposing. The Democrats are fighting hard to prevent this by offering our plan for A Better Budget.
After years of Republican tax cuts, property tax payers in NH will feel the pain of increasing property taxes.
