Steven Cunningham State Representative Sullivan District 2	April 13, 2010 Steven Cunningham represents the towns of Springfield, Croydon, Newport, Goshen and Washington in the NH House of Representatives.  Representative Cunningham is a member of the House Committee on Municipal and County Government.

The governor of New Hampshire is cutting spending. Finally, too little, too late. I have to get the details tomorrow, but it appears some are real cuts and some are cost shifting to the county and towns. Of course the latter really means to those paying property tax, you and me.  The cuts will hurt.  Just as my income plummeted the last year and a half as did many if not most of my constituents, those receiving help from the rest of us will need to tighten their belts a little, too.   The sooner cuts are made, the less they will hurt and they should have been done several years ago. 

The governor also has some accounting tricks by bonding some costs.  These just delay the inevitable.  

I will read the governor's report after I pick it up tomorrow and get back to you with more juicy details.
