Governor Maggie Hassan issued the following statement on the June revenue report:

"The revenue report for June showing that state revenues are nearly $100 million ahead of plan for Fiscal Year 2016 is a clear sign that our economy continues to strengthen and reflects our sound fiscal management and the hard work of our state agencies. In light of these strong revenues, we have taken important steps to provide additional resources in combating the heroin and opioid crisis and to strengthen our long-term fiscal outlook by increasing our Rainy Day Fund. While this progress is encouraging, we know that we must continue working together to maintain fiscal responsibility, support job-creating businesses, and build a stronger, more innovative New Hampshire where all of our people who work hard have the opportunity to get ahead and stay ahead."
