Concord, NH – Today, State House Democrats on the Science, Technology, and Energy Committee passed a radical carbon tax (HB375) that will increase energy prices for every family in NH. This tax scheme will burden NH residents with a tax no other state – not even liberal Massachusetts – has dared to pass. The NHGOP released the following statement:

“I applaud every single Republican for standing strong and voting no on this disastrous new carbon tax,” Said Chairman Stephen Stepanek. “The Democrats are out of control and are coming for the wallets of every New Hampshire resident with their radical far left agenda. Representative Lee Oxenham’s socialist fantasy is bad news for New Hampshire taxpayers. It’s imperative that Republicans take back the majority in 2020. As Democrats accumulate terrible voting records over the course of the next session, we will Flip the House next November.”
