NH GOP to hold summit on cutting state spending

New Hampshire's House Republicans are holding a summit on Tuesday to discuss ways to cut spending as a counter to a seminar last week by the chamber's tax-writing committee on the state's tax structure.

The event will feature House and Senate Republican leaders, Republican members of the House budget committee, a former health and human services commissioner and two speakers from public policy groups.

The public will be allowed to ask questions.

Last week, the House Ways and Means Committee brought in tax experts, economists and others to discuss the state's tax structure. Republicans called a tax summit and said Democrats were using it to push for an income tax.
