relative to administration of the New Hampshire refugee resettlement program.
Maddy summaryThis bill proposes changes to how New Hampshire administers its refugee resettlement program by prioritizing state funding for the social determinants of health for U.S. citizens first. Under the new rules, government resources for refugees could only be used after the department confirms that all eligible citizens have been served and removed from waitlists for state-funded services. The legislation would take effect 60 days after passing, though recent committee reviews have recommended against further legislative action on this measure.
