New Hampshire says No – HB 1701

by Steve MacDonald

This is one of those laws, just signed by the Governor, that makes me proud to live in New Hampshire.  It’s HB 1701. An Act prohibiting New Hampshire from entering into or enforcing reciprocal agreements with other states to deny rights and privileges  for non-payment of taxes  owed to another state.

Excerpt:

Under no circumstances shall the director suspend, revoke, or fail to renew a driver’s license for failure to pay taxes to a state other than New Hampshire. The director, upon receipt of request by a driver, accompanied by substantial evidence that a New Hampshire driver license suspension is the result of an out-of-state conviction for failure to pay taxes or an offense not pursuant to New Hampshire state law shall either restore the driver’s New Hampshire driving privilege or forward the request to the bureau of hearings for a hearing to evaluate the evidence.

 

Live Free or Die.
