Federal Relations


 

Washington DC Montage

Government relations works closely with national organizations, like APLU, the federal administration, and New Hampshire’s Congressional delegation to advocate for the University of New Hampshire.  We monitor federal legislation and regulations and advocate for federal appropriations to support University programs, research and priorities.  We also connect University students, faculty, and administrators to members of Congress, the executive branch, and national organizations on matters where the University has particular expertise and interest.
