Tom Mannion, a New Hampshire State Representative, used his social media account to comment on legislative proceedings related to a bill referred to as “DTG.” Mannion’s posts spanned from January 7 to January 9, 2026, and included calls for public engagement as well as criticism of the bill’s fiscal provisions.
On January 7, Mannion urged constituents to reach out to their representatives ahead of an upcoming vote: “DTG to hit the floor tomorrow. Contact your Reps!”
The following day, he posted a brief update indicating that the scheduled event had arrived: “Today’s the day.”
After the legislative action took place, Mannion expressed concerns about specific budgetary measures in the bill. On January 9, he wrote: “That 6% central office cap, with no overall budget cap, creates the starting point for spending. The admins will just craft the budget for themselves and inflate the rest of the budget around them so their part stays under the 6%. Sad this bill went this way.”
Mannion’s comments reflect ongoing debates within state legislatures over fiscal controls and administrative budgeting practices. In New Hampshire, lawmakers often scrutinize caps on administrative spending as they relate to broader state budget priorities and transparency.
