Municipal advocacy and government affairs are the primary focus of the New Hampshire Municipal Association. NHMA advocacy activities are overseen by the Municipal Advocacy Committee (MAC), comprised of the 14 municipal members of the LGC Board and an additional 17 local officials elected by NHMA member municipalities.
The 75-member Committee on Government Affairs (CGA) is responsible for recommending legislative policy positions to the NHMA membership at the biennial Legislative Policy Conference and for providing support during the legislative session. For complete details of the NHMA policy setting process, visit the NHMA Policy-Setting Process page.
Both MAC and CGA are committees of elected and appointed local officials of member municipalities from across the state. Potential new committee members may be self-nominated, put forward by the nominating committees of MAC and CGA, or nominated by local officials in member municipalities.
