Percentages are of the 1 individually-written submissions, every one of which was read in full — not a sample. A submission making several arguments is counted under each.
Form-letter detection only groups a template once at least ten people send it, so smaller sets of submissions sharing near-identical wording are counted here as individual testimony. On bills where a handful of writers worked from the same talking points, a count may therefore run slightly ahead of the number of independently-written arguments.
Generated by anthropic/claude-opus-5 on Aug 10, 2026. Quotes are verbatim excerpts, verified against the cited submission before publication. Argument groupings are AI interpretation of the record, not part of it.

Timothy Creegan for Myself Salem Good day. Tim Creegan here...I spend 23 years supporting a Preclinical drug metabolism portfolio of products and services out of Woburn, MA (BD Biosciences --> Corning Life Sciences --> Discovery Life Sciences). I have lived in NH and worked in MA for a majority of my science career. Recently, I connected with New Hampshire Life Sciences (headed by Andrea Hechavarria) as they create an ecosystem to support Life Sciences in the 603. I support their efforts and especially their efforts as they relate to the Regen Valley and BioFab USA (armiusa.org). Let us fund the next generation of life sciences start ups in NH by allowing this tax credit to pass and be poised to "hit the ground running" as the economy rebounds and investment dollars pour in. Perhaps, my next opportunity is in the Granite State. | Salem | Support | 819 | Jan 21, 2026 | ||
