NH DEM CHAIRMAN RAYMOND BUCKLEY'S STATEMENT ON GOVERNOR LYNCH'S STATE OF THE STATE ADDRESS

(Concord) - "Today we heard Governor John Lynch deliver  a comprehensive agenda to make progress for the people of New Hampshire," said Raymond Buckley. "I have never seen a State of the State address received more warmly by such a bi-partisan audience.  The Governor's message of fiscal accountability and responsible leadership resonates with ALL New Hampshire citizens, and will help New Hampshire address many long-neglected needs.

"I was happy to witness many members of the Republican Party joined their Democratic colleagues in standing up for expanding healthcare, supporting workers and protecting our environment.

"Today, all of New Hampshire should be proud to have a leader like Gov. John Lynch and the new majority in the legislature delivering real results for New Hampshire families."
