Senate GOP: We want assurances from Lynch

By Brian Lawson, PolitickerNH.com Reporter

In the lead up to Gov. John Lynch's inaugural address, State Senate Republicans have released a statement outlining their hopes and expectations for the governor's next term.

Deputy Minority Leader state Sen. Bod Odell (R-Lempster) said he hopes the governor will promise to not tap the Rainy Day Fund when handling the current budget crisis.

"I hope to hear a commitment to not raid the Rainy Day Fund to solve our current budget gap and a commitment to not raise taxes to balance the current and upcoming budgets," Odell said in a statement.

Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro) said at a Republican debate that his primary rival has put New Hampshire on a path towards an income tax.
