At least 67 communities have passed a resolution opposed to New Hampshire’s anti-tax “pledge.”

The non-binding resolution asks state lawmakers to stop taking pledges and instead, work on ways to find a more fair system of taxation in New Hampshire.

The Granite State Fair Tax Coalition has been advocating the resolution for several years. The coalition says 53 towns passed the resolution this month, joining 14 other communities that passed it last year.

The coalition says the resolution failed in 23 towns this year, and in one last year. Four more towns chose not to debate the resolution this year after residents petitioned to place it on the warrant.

Ten more towns will vote on this resolution sometime between Tuesday and late May.
