Sununu issues statement on special interest group lawsuit

By Staff | Jan 6, 2021

CONCORD – Gov. Chris Sununu issued the following statement after the ACLU-NH, NHLA and DRC-NH announced a class action lawsuit in conjunction with a New York special interest group against the State of New Hampshire:

“This lawsuit is led by Children’s Rights Incorporated – a special interest group, backed by Wall Street law firms, which preys on child protection programs across the country. While some states have issues they need to address, here in NH we have made more progressive reforms to our state’s child welfare system than any administration in history. My biggest disappointment lies with the ACLU-NH, NHLA, and the DRC-NH, who know of all the great reforms we have made. The Department of Health and Human Services has worked over the last four years to build productive relationships with these organizations while making great strides to care for our children. This New York based entity doesn’t care about our kids. They are looking for attention for themselves, and their legal maneuverings will bring our progressive reforms to a grinding halt. Shame on every single person associated with this effort.”
