Budget Chaos in Context: Fiscal Lessons Learned for a Challenging Future
State Representative Dan Wolf and attorney Brad Cook invite you to a cocktail reception with The Concord Coalition as it marks its 25th anniversary by looking at fiscal lessons learned the past quarter-century and how those lessons apply to the major policy challenges of the next 25 years.
While the political and economic landscapes have changed, one thing remains the same: our fiscal trajectory is unsustainable.
Concord’s Executive Director, Robert Bixby, and New England Regional Director, Chase Hagaman, will discuss current and future fiscal trends and challenges and share what Concord has been doing in New Hampshire in its push to engage citizens on these vital issues.
Whether you know Concord well, or are unfamiliar with its efforts, this reception will update you on the organization’s work and the need for a more productive fiscal policy conversation at the national level.
Concord was co-founded by former U.S. Senator for New Hampshire, Warren B. Rudman.
