Chris Sununu.

Later, NHPR's Mara Hoplamazian also joins to share the latest on New Hampshire's community power program.

We discuss this story and more in this edition of the New Hampshire News Recap.

Top stories from around New Hampshire this week:

I cover New Hampshire’s economy from a Granite Stater’s perspective. I report on housing, inflation, state revenues, businesses and more. My goal is to report on the ways the cost of living is shaping the economy on both the macro and micro level: from state revenues to Main Street, from small business decisions to household budgets. I hope to reflect the daily financial situations Granite Staters find themselves in and what policy makers are doing about it.
As the host of Morning Edition, my aim is to present news and stories to New Hampshire listeners daily that inform and entertain with credibility, humility and humor.
