Good News for New Hampshire Drivers !!

The Governor’s 10-Year Highway Plan does not include any toll increases. This is welcome news for families who are already stretched thin.

The last thing hardworking families need is to pay more just to commute to work or drive north to enjoy our beautiful state.

Keeping tolls steady helps protect household budgets and keeps New Hampshire affordable for everyone.

Thank you, Governor Ayotte, for considering the impact that a toll increase would have had on New Hampshire families.

Honoring Our First Responders

Today we honor the brave men and women who answer the call when the rest of us are running the other way.

Our first responders including firefighters, police officers, EMTs, paramedics, and dispatchers put service above self every single day. They carry an enormous weight so our communities can feel safe, cared for, and protected.

Their courage, sacrifice, and compassion often go unseen, but their impact is felt in every life they touch. To all who serve, thank you for your dedication and the countless moments of calm you bring to chaos.

And a special thank you to my favorite first responder, the one I married. 💛 Thank you for all that you do, every day.

Remembering Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill with deep gratitude and respect. His service, sacrifice, and love for his community will never be forgotten. 💙

Today, we honor and remember Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill, who was tragically killed in the line of duty four years ago.

Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill
1977-2021

Staff Sergeant Jesse E. Sherrill was raised in Barrington. He attended elementary and middle schools there and graduated from Dover High School, where he was a strong athlete in baseball and football. After graduating from Westfield State University, Jesse entered law enforcement in New Hampshire, hired by the Hooksett Police Department in 2001.

In December of 2002, Jesse was hired by the Division of State Police, and his first assignment as a Trooper was to the northernmost patrol in the state. After successful patrol assignments in Troops F, A, and with the Narcotics Investigations Unit (NIU), Jesse achieved the rank of Sergeant and Staff Sergeant, becoming Assistant Commander of Troop A in 2021.

On the night of Thursday, October 28, 2021, Staff Sergeant Sherrill was working an extra duty detail on Interstate 95 in Portsmouth, providing traffic protection as a crew worked on the shoulder, when a tractor-trailer struck his cruiser from behind at highway speed, causing him fatal injuries. Staff Sergeant Sherrill gave his life in service to others. Well known for being an extremely hard worker and dedicated family man, he worked many extra hours to support his family, while also protecting the hours to maintain a deep involvement in his children’s lives, including as a beloved baseball coach and dance Dad.

Staff Sergeant Sherrill was a coach and mentor both in and out of the uniform. He embodied a love for community, for service in public safety, for life lessons that can be taught by sport, and for family. He has left the Division a better place than he found it, with many a colleague who will seek to emulate his example. He leaves behind a loving wife, Nicolle, and two children, Peyton and Quinn.

He will never be forgotten.

I’m truly heartbroken to see the break in at Goldenrod Restaurant & Drive-In.

It’s upsetting to think that someone would do this. Goldenrod has been part of Manchester for generations, a place filled with kindness, memories, and tradition.

It hurts to see something so good disrespected by a selfish act. Small businesses like this are the heart of our community. They work hard every day to serve others and keep our city special.

My thoughts are with everyone at Goldenrod who puts their heart into that place and the people they serve. They didn’t deserve this.
