Merrimack County Attorney Candidate Steven Endres Fired After Misconduct Investigation

Steven Endres, a candidate for Merrimack County Attorney, was fired from his solicitor position in April 2025 following a misconduct investigation. The probe, triggered by a Valentine's Day text message regarding a colleague's attire, revealed a pattern of inappropriate comments and sexual jokes directed at female legal secretaries. Although Endres denied many allegations and claimed no power imbalance existed, County Attorney Paul Halvorsen terminated his employment, citing detrimental conduct. Endres subsequently switched from Republican to Democrat to run for the office he previously supported Halvorsen to win.

Labor IG Report Details 'Toxic' Culture, Fund Misuse, and Bodyguard Scandal Under Chavez-DeRemer

A 44-page report from the Department of Labor’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) details extensive policy violations by former Labor Secretary Lori Chavez-DeRemer, including creating a hostile work environment, misusing government funds, and maintaining an inappropriate relationship with a security detail. Released on September 4, 2026, the report confirms that Chavez-DeRemer, who resigned in April 2026, directed employees to perform personal tasks, consumed alcohol on federal property, and accepted unreported gifts. While the OIG found the conduct violated department policies, it did not determine if the behavior constituted unlawful discrimination or a hostile work environment under federal law. The report also highlights that Chavez-DeRemer’s relationship with an assistant special agent-in-charge compromised security protocols, leading to reduced protective coverage.
