Governor Kelly Ayotte’s executive order implementing a state government hiring freeze aims to address New Hampshire’s budget deficit by promoting fiscal restraint.

With exceptions for critical roles like direct care services, law enforcement, and positions funded through federal or restricted funds, the freeze emphasizes government efficiency.

This move is in line with Ayotte’s efforts to align state spending with available resources, following similar actions taken by President Donald Trump at the federal level.

The order underscores her commitment to improving state operations and increasing value for taxpayers. The freeze has no set expiration date and will remain in place until Ayotte decides otherwise.
