Chris Sununu

Christopher T. Sununu is the 82nd Governor of the State of New Hampshire and is currently serving his third term, receiving in 2020 more votes ever than any candidate in state history.

Named the nation’s most fiscally responsible governor by Cato Institute, Governor Sununu has delivered three balanced state budgets with no new taxes. In fact, his third budget:

• Cuts and phases out the Interest & Dividends Tax for retirees,
• Provides tax relief to employers and small businesses,
• Reduces property taxes by $100 million,
• Delivers voluntary paid family medical leave,
• Spends more money per pupil for public education than ever before.

In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Sununu took unprecedented action to balance the health and safety of Granite Staters with keeping the state’s economy strong. New Hampshire always ranked among the safest states for Covid. Today, the Granite State has the lowest unemployment rate in the nation and the lowest child poverty rate of any state in America.

Early in his tenure Governor Sununu created The Doorway and the Recovery Friendly Workplace initiative, both of which have become national models for prevention, treatment and recovery from substance use disorder and are consistently improving results for the citizens of New Hampshire.
