When asked about winning the award, Greg said, “This came as a big surprise. I know we had worked hard with a strong class executive committee, and the terrific participation of our class in mini-reunion attendance and DCF giving, but to be singled out like this was special. It goes without saying that winning this award would not have happened without the support of the other class officers and all of my classmates.” The Class of 1981 also won a “Special Recognition” award as part of the “Class of the Year” competition. This recognition places our Annette Gordon-Reed pictured in the New York Historical Society. class in the top echelon of the 77 alumni classes represented at Dartmouth.

  • Fall Elections Are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the Many Impacts Of
    Fall Elections are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic is that some events that are non-pandemic-related get lost in the all-COVID, all-the-time news coverage. In the midst of the recent NH House and Senate meetings in-person at different locations than their usual State House chambers, the filing period for all State elective offices quietly opened and closed. Other than one US Senator whose term does not end this year - Sen. Maggie Hassan (D) - every NH state, county and local elective office is up for grabs and there are some surprises in the NH House, Senate and Executive Council line-ups for the September primary and the November general elections. In the House, 38 Democrats and 37 Republicans did not file for re-election, which will leave some big holes, especially in committee leadership positions. The chair of the Commerce & Consumer Affairs Committee, Ed Butler, is stepping down and the Science and Technology Committee is losing both its chair and vice-chair, Bob Backus and Howard Moffett. The Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee will lose its vice-chair, Polly Campion. And the Children and Family Law and Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committees will both lose their vice-chairs, Skip Berrien and Beth Rodd. In addition, two Division chairs of the House Finance Committee will not be back next session because they are seeking higher office: Patricia Lovejoy (D) is running for the Executive Council seat left open by the retirement of Russell Prescott; and Susan Ford (D) is running for State Senate District One, the seat now held by David Starr (R).

  • CMS-2258-P Paper Comments 101-110 (PDF)
    Association ofcounties March 15,2007 Leslie Norwalk, Acting Administrator Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services 200 Independence Avenue, S.W., Room 445-G Washington, DC 20201 Re: CMS-2258-P: Medicaid Program; Cost Limit for Providers Operated by Units of Government and Provisions to Ensure the Integrity of federal-State Financial Partnership, (Vol. 72, NO. ll), January 18,2007 Dear Ms. Norwalk: The New Hampshire Association of Counties would like to be on file as opposing this proposed rule for the following reasons: 1. The rule will impose new restrictions on how states fund their Medicaid program and restricts how states reimburse their governmentally nursing homes. 2. This rule will result in an inefficient cost-based reimbursement system that contains no incentives for efficient performance. Congress moved away from a Medicaid cost- based system 27 years ago. 3. The estimated cut in federal spending over five years amounts to a budget cut for safety-net nursing homes. 4. The rule restricts intergovernmental transfers and certified public expenditures thus restricting New Hampshire's ability to fund the non-federal share of Medicaid payments. 5. There is no authority in the statute for CMS to restrict IGTs to funds generated from tax revenue and inconsistent with historic CMS policy. We believe that CMS has inappropriately interpreted the federal statute. 6. The new restrictions would result in fewer dollars to pay for the needed care for the nation's most vulnerable people, the sick and frail elderly. 7. CMS has not provided sufficient and relative data to support a claim that state financing practices across the nation do not comport with the Medicaid statute.

  • June 28, 2018 Dear Senator, We, the Undersigned, Are Members of Issue
    June 28, 2018 Dear Senator, We, the undersigned, are members of Issue One’s ReFormers Caucus — a coalition of former members of Congress, Cabinet officials and governors representing all fifty states — writing to strongly urge you to co-sponsor the bipartisan, bicameral Honest Ads Act. The bill is a carefully crafted first step to address foreign meddling in U.S. ​ politics. The Honest Ads Act is also the first bill created in response to outside interference in the 2016 elections. There is encouraging widespread agreement: The Intelligence Community Assessment and both the House and Senate Intelligence Committees concur that foreign actors interfered in the 2016 U.S. elections through the use of paid, online advertisements on some of the largest internet platforms — all to divide Americans and weaken the country. These ads — some of which were paid for in rubles — targeted certain American voters in an attempt to sow discord and manipulate our political system. It is imperative that Congress act now in response to this national security crisis created by Russia and other non-state actors in order to protect our free and fair elections from foreign intrusions in the future. For decades, disclosure rules governing political advertising in print, radio and television have improved transparency and accountability by providing American consumers with vital information. While rules involving these types of media have proven successful, hardly any disclosure rules exist for the digital frontier and online advertisements. The Honest Ads Act simply seeks to update our 20th century laws and requires similar disclosure requirements as television and radio advertisements.

    Administration of Barack H. Obama, 2010 Remarks at a Town Hall Meeting and a Question-and-Answer Session in Nashua, New Hampshire February 2, 2010 The President. Thank you. Hello, Nashua! Thank you very much. Thank you, guys. Thank you so much. Everybody, please have a seat. Thank you. Well, it is—— Audience member. We love you! The President. I love you back. It's great to be here, great to be back in New Hampshire. Now, some of you may remember, I've spent a little time in this State. [Laughter] I've had beers at Peddler's Daughter. I manned the scoop at ice cream socials from Dover to Hudson. I've walked Main Street in Concord and visited with folks in all 10 counties. I even once flew in the airport in Milan, which has got to be one of the only airports with a functioning wood stove. [Laughter] We spent a bunch of times in this gym, caused traffic jams several times— [laughter]—and just have a lot of good friends here in this State, here in this city, and here in this high school. So I'm just grateful to all of you for taking the time to be here. I've got a couple of special thank yous to say. Now, first of all, please thank Tim Dining for the wonderful introduction and for the great work that he's doing day in, day out. I want to thank David Ryan, doing a great job as principal here at Nashua North. Mayor Donnalee Lozeau is here; give her a big round of applause.

  • Republicans Hold Narrow Leads in NH Congressional Races 9/30
    THE WMUR GRANITE STATE POLL THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAMPSHIRE SURVEY CENTER September 30, 2010 REPUBLICANS HOLD NARROW LEADS IN NH CONGRESSIONAL RACES By: Andrew E. Smith, Ph.D. UNH Survey Center www.unh.edu/survey-center 603/862-2226 DURHAM, NH – Fresh off a hard fought primary win, Republican Frank Guinta has opened a lead over incumbent Carol Shea-Porter in New Hampshire’s 1 st Congressional District. In the 2 nd District, former Representative Charlie Bass holds a very narrow lead over his Democratic rival, Ann Kuster. These findings are based on the latest WMUR Granite State Poll ,∗ conducted by the University of New Hampshire Survey Center. Five hundred fifteen (515) randomly selected New Hampshire adults were interviewed by telephone between September 23 and September 29, 2010. Included was a subsample of 262 adults in the NH First Congressional District (margin of sampling error +/-6.0%), and a subsample of 253 Second Congressional District adults (margin of sampling error +/-6.1%). 1st Congressional District In New Hampshire’s First Congressional District, incumbent Democrat Carol Shea-Porter faces a difficult re-election fight. After leading her opponent for a time this summer, Shea-Porter has lost significant ground to her challenger former Manchester Mayor Frank Guinta. Guinta recently won a hard fought 4-way primary battle for the Republican nomination. Currently, 49% of likely 1 st C.D. voters say they will vote for Guinta, 39% say they will vote for Shea-Porter, 3% prefer some other candidate, and 9% are undecided. NH 1 st CD Race – Guinta (R) vs.

  • After Citizens United
    After Citizens United A Look into the Pro-Corporate Players in American Politics The Supreme Court’s 5-4 ruling in Citizens United v. FEC decided that the First Amendment right of free speech should apply with little distinction to both individuals and corporations. Since Buckley v. Valeo established money as a form of speech, the Court’s decision allows for corporations to donate unrestricted funds from their general treasuries to political organizations, effectively overturning decades of state and federal campaign finance laws. Fearing effects of greater corporate influence in American public life, Justice Stevens in his dissenting opinion warned that corporations can “amass and deploy financial resources on a scale few natural persons can match,” and are not “themselves members of ‘We the People’ by whom and for whom our Constitution was established.” Although corporations now have a constitutional right to contribute money to independent expenditure groups, these groups are not bound to publicly disclose the sources of their funding. Even though the majority opinion in Citizens United actually upheld Congress’s right to enact disclosure laws, claiming that such “transparency enables the electorate to make informed decisions” without “impos[ing] a chill on speech or expression,” 501 (c)4 and (c)6 organizations that do not disclose their financial backers are increasingly engaging in political work. While we do not know who is funding such organizations, we do know that the groups playing a larger role in the 2010 elections are overwhelmingly backing right-wing candidates. According to TIME¸ pro-Republican groups could spend as much as $300 million for the 2010 election.
