CONCORD – Today, Governor Sununu signed HB 1245, a 79 page omnibus bill concerning state agencies, into law.

Senate President Donna Soucy (D-Manchester) issued the following statement in response:

“Yesterday, Governor Sununu vetoed HB 1234, a non-partisan bill containing requests from his own department heads, and in his veto message questioned the integrity of the legislative process, falsely claiming that the legislation lacked a public hearing. I am pleasantly surprised to see that just 24 hours later, the Governor has signed HB 1245 into law. I’m glad he has so quickly reversed his position on omnibus legislation and I thank the Legislature for its diligence in crafting this bill.”
