On June 3, the New Hampshire Senate voted to approve its version of the two-year state budget. This version of the budget would spend a total of $5.4 billion in state general and education funds for the two fiscal years that begin on July 1, 2021 and 2022. The Senate-passed budget will be considered by the House on June 10.

The budget includes a 207-page bill, known as “House Bill 2.” This legislation includes a very detailed and complex set of laws and instructions that will implement the budget and important state policies over the next two years. Not surprisingly, there is a great deal of information contained in this legislation, and very few persons, including legislators, have had a chance to review all aspects of these proposals.
