Both President Trump and Governor Sununu released details about proposed budget plans within the last few weeks, so we'll discuss the impacts of these plans, including increased defense spending, and more funds for managing the opioid crisis. We'll also look at current wage and unemployment statistics in the state, and how Granite Staters feel about their economy.

  • Jeff Feingold - Editor of the New Hampshire Business Review.
  • Steve Norton - Executive Director of the New Hampshire Center for Public Policy Studies.
