Boston Globe:

Amid chants from the gallery and thousands of demonstrators in the State House plaza, the New Hampshire House approved a $10.2 billion budget yesterday that deeply cuts social programs and strips public unions of much of their bargaining power.

The House debated the budget for five hours before Republicans pushed it through, 243-124. Early in the debate, chants of “Shame On You!’’ rained down from a crowd in the gallery, which was temporarily cleared but reopened before the final vote. Outside the State House, thousands more gathered to voice opposition. :snip:
