It’s Time to Roll Back Executive Rule Making Authority on Vaccine Mandates
Over time, it seems that too much power and authority works its way into the executive branch. However well-intended, this transfer of law-making authority needs to be restored to the legislative branch.
Your State House 02/11/22: Emergency Powers, Occupational Licensing, Retirement Raises, …
This week, the House continued with committee work. My committee heard HB 1321, which repealed all the changes we had made to the governor’s emergency powers in the last year, including the sponsor’s own HB 1037. That was recommended to be killed, 17-1. HB 1274, establishing a study committee on state agencies’ solid waste practices, … Read more
At Least Be Truthful about the Word “Ask” When Talking about Legislation, Eh?
I find that too many politicians try to sugarcoat the velvet-covered steel fist that is Government. Even those on the Right do so from time to time. Now, I know that the Left deliberately uses vague pronouncements and is very imprecise in their language.
Sure Thing, Murder Turtle – Say The Quiet Part Out Loud (No Legislative Agenda if Senate Goes Republican)
This just ANNOYS the heck out of me. Every time I see that the Democrats take power, we see the “Dense Pack” attack happen 2 minutes after all the oaths (not that they seem to mean much lately) are “promised” and the chamber is called into session.
With New OSHA Rules Slated for Jan. 4, The Legislature Must Meet to Legally Defend NH Workers.
OSHA has issued its Emergency Temporary Standard for COVID-19 vaccination and testing for all employers with 100 employees or more. Jab or no job: the deadline for 84 million employees is January 4!
Legislature Needs to Pass a Bill That Prohibits Mandatory Vaccination
I plead with all of you to work together and pass a bill for NH citizens that makes it illegal that any company requires its workers or contractors to be vaccinated or show proof of being vaccinated.
Isn’t the School Board Supposed to Know What Their Powers Are (Or How They Got Them)?
I’m in the process of suing the Gilford School Board for not following the law in their own policies. Every School Board has a lot of Policies covering how they are to act, and governance matters.
603 Alliance RevCon 2021 – Neil Hubacker: “Passing Bills, Writing a Right-to-Know request”
This is Parts 1-4 of the 603 Alliance’s RevCon 2021 presentation of Concord 101 – Passing a bill and Writing a Right-to-Know request” with Neil Hubacker (Director, Church Ambassador Network). RevCon was the brainchild of the 603 Alliance that saw that ordinary folks, Right AND Left, were rising up to fight Critical Race Theory that … Read more
Your State House 7/2/21
This year I was the prime sponsor of eight bills and co-sponsored thirteen more. Of my prime bills, five have passed and four have been signed into law: HB 70, authorizing a certificate for eyebrow microblading rather than a full tattoo license; HB94, making nearly all professional licenses valid for two years, rather than one; … Read more
Sustaining the Center Right Mission
We want to thank all of you for making the New Hampshire Center Right meeting one of the most highly attended center right meetings in the country.
Here’s A Trump Executive Order I’m Not Sorry to See Canceled
While Trump was deleting regulations (generally), he esentially demanded that the ATF “regulate” bump stocks as machine guns after the Las Vegas shooting that killed 58 people. The problem is that an Executive Order can’t override, either by deleting or adding to, established Law.
How About If The Voter Identification Advisory Committee Did Its Damn Job
Now might be the time to crank up some intestinal fortitude and ask for the recommendations of the VOTER IDENTIFICATION ADVISORY COMMITTEE.
AFP-NH Puts a Focus on 10 Key Legislative Priorities for 2021
Last week American’s for Prosperity New Hampshire published a list of legislative priorities for the Granite State in 2021. They’ve put a much-needed focus on ten pieces of legislation covering Education, Licensing, Free Speech, Asset Forfeiture, Health Care, and (believe it or not) Climate Change (sort of).
HB 20 Puts Homeschoolers at Risk
The universal EFA bill, House Bill 20, as currently written makes nearly every child in the state eligible for the program, capable of transferring into it, but that is not the same as saying an EFA student is a homeschooler or EFA funds can be used for home education.
I’m Not the Only One Thinking “Lined up on the Runway Ready to Go”
This echoes what I’ve been saying. That the GOP and NH GOP should have Bills prepped and prechecked WELL before a legislative session, on the taxiway, and ready to launch down the runway.
Trump Vows Immediate $1,200 Check To Americans If Speaker Moves Bill – ‘Are You Listening, Nancy?’
FIRST, we are, for the first time, $27 Trillion in debt as a nation. We are broke, broker, brokest. WHY are we sending out more money? WHY is ANYONE sending out even more money that we don’t have?
DISQUS Doodlings – Just Putting Republicans into Those Seats is Insufficient
Sigh. Once again, we see an instance of what I call the Republican Republicans’ for the Sake of the Republican Party (“RRftSofRP”). I don’t consider myself the brightest bulb in the lot; just an ordinary schlub from Central New Hampsha.
The Pre-Emptive Veto
There’s a lot of talk lately about how the House wasted time on some pointless reprimands, and consequently everything is behind schedule. However, this represents a small fraction of a much larger slice of time that gets wasted in every session, but especially in sessions — like the current one — where the legislative and executive branches are controlled by different parties.
