Republican village. Chris Sununu gave his last state -of -the -art address on Thursday, urged MPs to urge to continue on the path of fiscal conscience and limited government, saying that he has made New Hampshire a “beacon of success”.
He said, “Continuous success is not unavoidable. We should constantly challenge ourselves, keeping individuals before the system, trying to be more accountable to the taxpayer dollar’s better stewers and people of the state,” he said. “In these last seven years, New Hampshire stands as a beach of success and a safe shelter for freedom and opportunity. We have worked hard in hard work, and it has always been a true team attempt.”
Sununu, who is the only second governor in the New Hampshire history serving four term, remains just within a year in the corner office. After molesting the US Senate and the President, he announced in July that he would not find another tenure as a governor, although he jokingly joked about the decision on Thursday.
“The filing period to run again is not till June, so you never know!” He said, before adding quickly, “Just joking!”
Sununu, the son of a former governor, was the youngest executive in the country, when he took over at the age of 42 in 2017. Now 49, he has seen the control of the legislature Flip from Republican to Democrats and again, with a close division in the 400-member House during his fourth term. Many times he had a rocky relationship with his party members, thanks to the growing effects of liberal-shock members thanks to the state government for seriously limiting.
But he credited the MPs on Thursday that he considered one of the biggest achievements of the state during that time: Last year, a bipartisan budget leaving through the Legislature.
He said, “It did not come with any gimmick or any promise. It was achieved with great hard work.”
“I think it was most notable that the Governor’s biggest achievement was the achievement of the legislature,” she said. “One thing that I thought had a lapse from him was the fact that he is the first governor in the history of New Hampshire to sign an abortion ban. It should be clearly something that he is not very proud of.”
Sununu signed a state budget in 2021, including a ban on miscarriage after 24 weeks of pregnancy, saying that the option would be a veto that would have closed the state government during the Koronwirus epidemic. The current Legislature is considering at least half a dozen bills, which aims to either restrict the process or implement the rights of abortion in the state law.
His speech lasted for less than half an hour on Thursday, barely four minutes for each year in the office. He highlighted the investment in affordable housing, education and mental health as a springboard to discuss the state’s opioid crisis. Sununu described successful programs that associate those with drug addiction with services and recovery workplaces.
Sunu then participated in his recent plan to join other states in sending National Guard soldiers to Texas to control illegal crossings on the US-Maxico border.
“Phantanelle supply on the southern border of the US is growing daily,” Sunu said, which will ask the Fiscal Committee of the Legislature to send 15 guard members to Texas on Friday for $ 850,000. “This is not a Texas problem. It is a national crisis, and the New Hampshire has a chance to provide special support, follow land laws and keep our citizens safe.”
