State Senate will have the final word on several programs important to Ossipee Lake.
The budget process “must include strategies to uphold the essential role government plays in fulfilling its social contract to protect and provide for those-in-need and sustain our communities,” according to a position statement from the N.H. Center for Non-Profits, which says the non-profit sector contributes more than $8 billion, or 14.5%, of the state’s GDP.
