CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - A House subcommittee on Wednesday recommended adding a provision to the state budget to limit the governor’s power to renew a state of emergency.
The amendment was a concession to lawmakers who have chafed at actions taken by fellow Republican Gov. Chris Sununu during the coronavirus pandemic. Sununu declared a state of emergency in March 2020 and has renewed it every 21 days since. Under the amendment recommended by a subsection of the House Finance Committee, he and future governors would only be able to renew such declarations once.
Sununu says the provision endangers public health and wellbeing.
