The
New Hampshire Fiscal Policy Institute (NHFPI) is an independent
nonprofit organization dedicated to exploring, developing, and promoting
public policies that foster economic opportunity and prosperity for all
New Hampshire residents. Their emphasis is on low- and moderate-income
families and individuals. The Institute, based in Concord, produces
regular reports on the fiscal and economic challenges facing New
Hampshire and serves as a resource to anyone interested in meeting those
challenges in a fair and sound fashion. NHFPI aims to illustrate
recent budget trends, highlight future challenges, and examine the ways
in which the New Hampshire budget is used to educate the state’s
children, ensure access to health care, promote public safety, maintain
public structures, and achieve other critical public priorities. In
its efforts to promote equitable, responsible, and sustainable fiscal
and economic policies, NHFPI collaborates with two national networks of
state-level policy research organizations, the State Priorities
Partnership (SPP) and the Economic Analysis and Research Network (EARN).
Jeff
McLynch. the NHFPI Executive Director, manages the organization’s daily
operations and oversees its research, communications, and outreach
efforts. He previously served as the State Policy Director at the
Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy, where he helped coordinate
its efforts to provide policymakers and the public with accurate and
timely information on tax systems across the U.S. Jeff also served as
the Deputy Director of the Massachusetts Budget and Policy Center and on
the professional staff of the U.S. House of Representatives Committee
on Ways and Means. He holds a Masters of Public Policy from Georgetown
University.
The
TriTown Democratic Committee advocates for strong local support of our
communities, and supports legislation and candidates that are community
minded. Their activities provide political, economic, and social
information for the citizens of the three towns, but also encourages
progressive movements in these areas at all levels of government.
Through community involvement, political action, and a shared vision,
the group seeks to expand equity and opportunity for all residents of
the Towns of Farmington, Milton, and New Durham.
