Compromise budget holds down spending, drawing veto threat - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

The Committee of Conference budget released on Thursday spends $6.34 billion from the General and Education Trust Funds, which represent the portion of the state budget funded by state tax revenues. That’s a $91 million, or 1.45%, increase over the previous state budget as passed. Legislators make spending adjustments throughout the budget cycle, as revenues rise and fall, so the appropriated budget is not the same as what was actually spent. I…Read Article

Plan to cover mental health program would create new bureaucracy, raise taxes & costs - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

One of the most important drivers of increased health care spending in the United States is the government-created divide between users and payers. Simply put, government mandates, subsidies, tax preferences and regulations have largely separated health care users from payers. That separation has created huge incentives for individuals to over-consume health care services while reducing the incentives to control costs. A legislative proposal thi…Read Article

Though expanding Education Freedom Accounts to all New Hampshire students is a top Republican Party priority for this legislative session, differences between three competing plans produced an impasse.

Teacher pay in New Hampshire is a casualty of high school staffing levels - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

It’s Teacher Appreciation Week and Granite Staters are again being subjected to the claim that teachers here earn less than they should because legislators are stingy. Given current market conditions, average teacher pay in New Hampshire is lower than it should be to recruit the best candidates. But the state’s contribution isn’t the reason. The National Education Association puts New Hampshire’s average teacher salary at $67,170, $4,860 below …Inflation · New Hampshire Read Article

Shifting education funding to the state probably wouldn't lead to higher spending - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

The movement to shift public school funding from local governments to the state is driven by a core belief that the shift will bring more funding. But that assumption is almost certainly wrong. The National Education Association’s latest annual report on public school data drew media coverage this week for its finding that New Hampshire’s state contribution to K-12 public school funding ranked the lowest nationwide. The implication, pushed by t…New Hampshire · New Hampshire Read Article

A uniform statewide building code would speed development times and lower costs - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

Home building is tough throughout New England, but Massachusetts gives its builders an advantage that builders in New Hampshire don’t enjoy. Massachusetts uses a uniform building code statewide. Builders there know exactly what every town’s code is because they’re all the same. That’s not so in New Hampshire, where municipalities can tack their own rules onto the state building code. This random patchwork of building codes raises costs and slows…Charlestown, New Hampshire · Charlestown Read Article

It's hard to restrain education spending when increases are 'cuts' - THE JOSIAH BARTLETT CENTER FOR PUBLIC POLICY

K-12 public school spending rises every year, whether enrollment increases or decreases. In this century, K-12 district public school enrollment in New Hampshire has fallen by more than 50,000 students, but spending is up by more than $1 billion, adjusted for inflation. How does this happen? The short answer is that local voters prefer to spend more on public schools, regardless of enrollment trends, tax rates or anything else.
