At midnight tonight, Granite Staters will directly feel the impact of a state government, with Governor Maggie Hassan at the helm, which lacks fiscal discipline and relies on higher taxes and more spending to resolve its problems. With this 23% increase in the states Gas Tax, our citizens are going to be faced with higher prices at the pump as we head into the summer driving season. However, we all know that the initial hit New Hampshire residents will feel while filling up at their local gas station is only just the beginning. In addition, it will cost more to transport any good or service that utilizes ground transportation, which will also be passed along to Granite State taxpayers. Furthermore, we are now hearing that the federal government is also considering a hike in the Gas Tax, too. Enough is enough. At what point will our legislators, both in Concord and in Washington, recognize that New Hampshire residents are forced to make the tough decisions to make ends meet every day. Why cant our leaders in government do the same thing? We at Citizens for a Strong New Hampshire believe Granite Staters deserve better than the recycled tax and spend philosophies theyve seen from our leaders in Concord. Sadly though, Governor Hassan and many in the State Senate and State House continue to disagree with us on that point time and time again.
