NH News Recap for Aug. 9, 2024: New law will ban PFAS products in NH; NH border data shows no apprehensions this spring

A new law will ban products for sale in New Hampshire that intentionally include PFAS chemicals, starting in 2027. The man-made chemicals have been linked to adverse health effects, including certain kinds of cancer. And new data requested by the ACLU of New Hampshire shows almost no illegal migrant crossings at the New Hampshire-Canada border in recent months. The group says the data show ramped up law enforcement at the border is unnecessary. Attorney General John Formella called the data a “tunnel vision approach.” We discuss these stories and more on this week's edition of the New Hampshire Recap with New Hampshire Bulletin Reporter Claire Sullivan and Boston Globe reporter Amanda Gokee.
