“The hundreds of New Hampshire Law enforcement officers, people standing here before you today who work in this field, demonstrate the highest level of unparalleled loyalty, commitment, dedication, along with the necessary motivation to maintain peaceful order and to keep everyone safe. They are some of the greatest people in the world, and I’m very proud to say that I’m a small part of that team. Today, we honor as heroes the 55 New Hampshire law enforcement officers whose names appear on the New Hampshire Law Enforcement Memorial Wall behind me. And we will never forget their sacrifices or yours.”
“I believe very deeply that the reason we have the housing shortage that we have, the reason we have some of the problems that we encounter, is that we have a community that is safe, and that’s, like, number one – the police department and everyone else does a great job. We have a community that is safe, a community that people want to live in, and that’s why we have the housing pressure that we do, because more people want to live here than are leaving. And so, we’re fortunate in that regard, and I feel privileged to be the mayor of a city like Nashua.”

In New Hampshire, more than 180,000 are covered by Medicaid Insurance, with about half of those recipients being children. Nearly 60,000 gained coverage under the Medicaid expansion under the Affordable Care Act (ACA) in 2014. If the proposed Republican budget cuts are approved, those 60,000 will lose all coverage due to a “trigger law’ which effectively ends state participation in the medicaid expansion program.
Larson offers this invitation to the Nashua community: “It’s a circus. It’s a performance. It’s a production. You get to see four talented artists making large format sculpture for your town, and it’s the only time that an artist takes that really, really tender, fragile practice that is art making, risk taking, and does it in front of everyone, publicly. Sounds scary, just saying. Don’t scare us. Don’t scare them. So, stop by, stop by, chat with our artists, engage with their making practice, with their artistic practice, and they will in turn engage with you.”
