New Hampshire’s Senate is considering a constitutional amendment that would limit state spending.
The Senate votes Wednesday whether to send the proposed constitutional amendment to the House. The House-passed version of the amendment would require 60 percent of lawmakers to vote in favor of bills to borrow or raise taxes.
The Senate is looking at instead limiting spending increases to the rate of inflation and the increase in population.
The House version is a top priority of Republican House Speaker William O’Brien.
