CONCORD N.H.- Gov Kelly Ayotte has vetoed Senate Bill 627 which would have increased the tolls for drivers without a New Hampshire E-ZPass.

If signed into Law the toll increase would’ve applied to anyone paying in cash, anyone driving with a different state’s E-ZPass transponder, and anyone driving through a toll without any transponder.

Ayotte’s recent vetoes have brought her total number to 24 in 2026 so far – that is double the number of bills she vetoed in all of 2025.
