New Hampshire became the 9th state on June 21, 1788.
Its civic life reflects town meeting traditions, small cities, forests, tourism, manufacturing, local control, and an outsized role in presidential primary politics. Public decisions about schools, property taxes, housing, health care, roads, and local services often begin close to home, even when state policy sets the rules. Below, find New Hampshire’s federal representatives, state government contacts, and the official sources worth bookmarking.
