Blaming Schools Isn't Fixing NH's Tax Crisis | Concord News

Senator Dan Innis is blaming Democrats and public schools for New Hampshire’s property tax woes, but the real issue? The state chronically underfunds education—courts have ruled it unconstitutional—with a $4,000-per-student cap far below the $7,000 minimum needed. That $3,000 gap gets dumped onto local homeowners via property taxes. Meanwhile, the state expands school choice programs while ignoring its own underfunded public system. His proposed property tax cap won’t fix anything—it just restricts communities from covering the shortfall without addressing the root cause. Real solutions require bipartisan action to reform the funding formula and honor the Constitution, not political theater.
