Croissants and Crossover
An almost evenly split House between Republicans and Democrats is creating far reaching complications rarely seen in New Hampshire. Join the BIA for the popular annual legislative halftime show Croissants and Crossover featuring a distinguished panel of New Hampshire’s finest political observers and reporters on March 31, at 8 a.m. at Holiday Inn, Concord Downtown.
Panelists include Annmarie Timmins from New Hampshire Bulletin, the Union Leader’s Kevin Landrigan, and Southern New Hampshire University political commentator, Professor Dean Spiliotes. Political intrigue, hidden agendas, outrageous controversies, key wins and painful losses from the first half of the 2023 session are all fair game for discussion.
The cost to attend the breakfast is $35 for members of the BIA and BIA Capitol Connect program. The cost for non-BIA members is $49. For more information, please contact Lora McMahon at lmcmahon@baiofnh.com.
