Statement of Speaker Terie Norelli on Medicaid Expansion Commission Report For Immediate Release October 15, 2013 CONTACT: Mario Piscatella (603) 271­3664 [email protected] Statement of Speaker Terie Norelli on Medicaid Expansion Commission Report CONCORD­ Earlier today the Commission to Study Medicaid Expansion voted to approve their final report. Speaker Terie Norelli issued the following statement: “The Commission did a tremendous amount of work, analyzing a variety of options and considering potential outcomes. They worked hard to find the best possible solution for New Hampshire and we owe them our gratitude for their thorough efforts.” “I would like to thank Representative Cindy Rosenwald and Dr. Travis Harker for the time, effort, and wisdom they gave to the commission and Representative Tom Sherman, M.D. for stepping forward with a compromise proposal that received strong support in the committee.” “Through the private insurer based managed care system and an expansion of the Health Insurance Premium Payment (HIPP) Program, the Commission’s recommended New Hampshire Access to Health Program would maximize private coverage and minimize cost to the state. I look forward to continuing to work together with Senate Leadership and Governor Hassan to reach an agreement to expand access to healthcare for working families across the state.” Earlier today Governor Maggie Hassan announced that she will ask the Executive Council on Wednesday to support calling a special session for November 7 through November 21, dates discussed with and agreed to by the Governor, Senate President Chuck Morse and Speaker Terie Norelli. # # #.

  • NEA-New Hampshire Recommended Candidates for 2020
    NEA-New Hampshire Recommended Candidates for 2020 ith more than 17,000 members, NEA-NH has an obligation to provide you with information regarding where candidates stand on issues affecting public educa- tion and our profession. Candidates are evaluated on their support for educators and public education issues. NEA-NH does NOT use other social issues in Wits decision-making process. The candidate’s party affiliation is of no importance. NEA-NH respects each member’s vote to be the private and personal act that it is. Recommendations are made to inform members. Because educators work in one of the most highly regulated professions and because those regulations are dic- tated by the laws passed by legislators and signed by the President or Governor, we take this informational role very seriously. Individuals who do not support the work our members do, or our right to bargain their contracts, or who refuse to provide the funding necessary to educate children, are working tirelessly to get elected and to elect the candidates who support their anti-education views. We must work even harder to ensure students come out on top this election.

    December 5, 2018 No. 1 STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE Web Site Address: www.gencourt.state.nh.us 166th Session of the New Hampshire General Court Legislative Proceedings SENATE JOURNAL ORGANIZATION DAY – DECEMBER 5, 2018 SESSION 2 SENATE JOURNAL 5 DECEMBER 2018 SENATE JOURNAL 1 December 5, 2018 ORGANIZATION DAY The Honorable Tammy Wright, Clerk of the Senate, called the Senate to order at 10:00 a.m. The Very Reverend Georges de Laire, chaplain to the Senate, offered the following prayer: Let us pray. Gracious and loving God, We turn to you this day, for you are the source of all that is good. Send upon these, your daughters and sons, a renewed longing for what is right and what is just. They have offered themselves and have been chosen by the people of our State to serve the common good. As each rep- resents their own constituents, they gather as one body to advance the good of the whole of New Hampshire. Guide them in their deliberations so that they may strive to promote the dignity intrinsic to every human being. Lead them to discover anew how to build a more equitable society at a time when the forces of individu- alism drown the voices of unity, where ego has replaced altruism. May informed and prudent wisdom be their counsel. Reveal to them, through their open and honest debates, the path leading to shared achievements and together may they forge forward. Seal them daily with the visceral knowledge that they are never alone, that you are at their side, rewarding them for serving their brothers and sisters.
