To learn more about Daniel Will’s history in advocating for suspending constitutional rights, read here before you contact your executive councilor. As we have documented, Will has a long paper trail of anti-constitutional behavior: behavior that is not fit for our NH Supreme Court. Remind your Councilor that there is no guarantee, or even hope, that he will apply the constitution to limit the government!
New Hampshire’s Executive Council isn’t just a group of advisors. Its members wield real power in the state and serve as a check on the Governor. Whether we’re talking about significant state contracts, pardons, or judicial nominations, it’s the Executive Council who has the final say. If that surprises you, you are far from alone. In fact, the power of New Hampshire’s Executive Council is unmatched by any other similar state body in the country. There are five councilors in New Hampshire. Learn more about their function here.
