Manage episode 414757165 series 3304685
A group of New Hampshire National Guard soldiers are in Eagle Pass, Texas to assist with that state's border control efforts. New Hampshire Bulletin's Annmarie Timmins is reporting from the southern border in collaboration with NHPR. We talk with her about what she's seen this week.
And a joint investigation from NHPR and APM Reports has found that New Hampshire's Education Commissioner Frank Edelblut has used his office repeatedly to elevate conservative complaints against the education system. That's despite his pledge to keep the job nonpartisan when he took over in 2017.
We talk about these stories on this edition of the New Hampshire News Recap.
Guests:
- Annmarie Timmins, New Hampshire Bulletin
- Sarah Gibson, NHPR
