US Treasury Abruptly Ends NH Emergency Rental Assistance Program Funding in NH

Concord, NH – Today, the State of New Hampshire learned it was not awarded additional funding to continue the U.S. Treasury's Emergency Rental Assistance beyond December 29, 2022.

This knowledge came via an unannounced list on the U.S Treasury's website. Unlike several other states, New Hampshire will not receive the additional $67 million in ERA2 funding it had requested this past Summer.

"After waiting several months, we learned that without notice or explanation, additional Emergency Rental Assistance (ERA) funds for New Hampshire have been rejected while 28 other states around the country have been given the resources for their program to continue," stated Governor Chris Sununu. "With skyrocketing inflation, cold weather and the holiday season, this is the absolute worst time for the federal government to take this step."
