Business leaders concerned about potential cuts to New Hampshire university system

Business leaders in New Hampshire have expressed concerns over the proposed budget cuts to the University System of New Hampshire (USNH), which could amount to $80 million over the next two years. These cuts, part of Governor Chris Sununu's budget proposal, are seen as detrimental to the state's economic growth and workforce development. The USNH, which includes the University of New Hampshire, Plymouth State University, and Keene State College, plays a crucial role in educating the state's future workforce.

They are urging the state legislature to reconsider the cuts and invest in higher education to support long-term economic prosperity.
