Democrat Katherine Rogers wrote a bill to require anyone in possession of a firearm within NH to have liability insurance that does not exist in any state for each and every weapon. This is a gun ban bill, plain and simple.
It came out of legislative committee inexpedient to legislate by a vote of 20-1.
When it was time for a floor vote, 22 House Democrats voted against killing it (Nay to save this legislation from its timely demise). They tried to save the de facto gun ban bill. You’ll recognize a few names, like Timmy Horrigan, Cynthia Chase, and (of course) Katherine Rogers.
For my full treatment on this awful piece of legislation look here.
