Senator Hassan, NH Delegation Statement on New Hampshire Energy Proposal

WASHINGTON – The New Hampshire Congressional Delegation issued the following statement on the state’s proposal to provide energy relief to Granite Staters:

“Granite Staters are struggling with high costs, and we worked to pass emergency relief – including through securing flexible funding for the state through the American Rescue Plan and increasing LIHEAP funding – that has brought more than a billion dollars to New Hampshire to help address challenges that families are facing in this difficult time. We are encouraged that the resources we’ve secured have helped the state have funds on hand to respond to rising energy costs and that the state is moving forward with direct relief. The state needs to continue to explore additional ways to leverage remaining federal relief funds to support Granite Staters.”
