I have announced my candidacy for State Representative Belknap District 1 for the residents of New Hampton and Center Harbor.
Democrat legislators in NH and other states are coming up with all kinds of crazy carbon tax plans along with bills that could potentially give tyrannical powers, in the hope of controlling “greenhouse gas” output. These bills are destructive to the free and unbiased practice of science by codifying a revenue stream that is reliant on a theory having a specific outcome, thereby corrupting the scientific method.
With many bills on the House agenda for March 11 and 12, we recognize that this is not practical. If you choose to email your state representatives on the following House bills, mention in the subject line that you are a resident of the rep’s district. As always, the best messages are brief, clear, and courteous.
We learned that the 37 bills that we spent time voting on today would have been all done on Feb 20th if we didn’t waste 4 hours on that day, at the Speaker’s discretion, reprimanding 8 legislators for not attending Sexual Harassment Training. Now we are behind in our schedule and we will have 350, … Read more
Upon returning from lunch at 1:30 PM we learned that the New Hampshire House would forever be changed, and not in a good way. Read on and you will understand.
We learned that the Majority Party Democrats haven’t learned anything from last year’s session with regard to vetoed bills because some of them were back today with different bill numbers and nearly identical language. The result was passage in the NH House of these bills, but we all know that if they survive the NH … Read more
The gun-grabbers in the New Hampshire legislature have advanced a compromise bill. That’s what they’d call it. It forces a three-day waiting period on the purchase of firearms by law-abiding citizens. Felons, who don’t have to wait were pushing for the seven-day waiting period.
We learned that the Legislature can come together to honor our fallen heroes. The New Hampshire Senate voted, 24-0, to adopt a joint resolution to grant New Hampshire Medal of Honor to Air Force Capt. Ryan S. Phaneuf of Hudson who died in an Afghanistan plane crash last month. The New Hampshire House unanimously voted … Read more
From the Women’s Defense League:
This week, we continued with a heavy load of public hearings on new bills. I presented my HB 1648, which legalizes private use of cannabis and growing it for personal use. Unlike previous bills, there is no allowance for commercial sales: no regulation, no taxes, no fees, and the prohibition on selling cannabis (also on … Read more
A defense of the true meaning of “Life Free or Die”. I was surprised to see that the Keene Sentinel ran a rather even handed piece on a rather new ‘Grok Friend of ours (he even asked us to come and speak to the Dublin Area GOP!), Leo Plante. It’s tough out there in that … Read more
The Left is at war with America on many fronts, but one that has until now gone under the radar involves animals. Pets, working animals, livestock, you name it, the Democrat party is bringing the regulatory state to your door.
To my constituents in Allenstown, Epsom, & Pittsfield: This week, the House started in on the new 2020 bills, with a flood of public hearings. So there were many fewer bills to me to report on, but more data on most of them. I presented my HB 1412 to the Education Committee. This bill requires … Read more
There will be a public hearing Wednesday on CACR 14, a proposed amendment that would enshrine abortion in the New Hampshire Constitution.
From the Women’s Defense League: The destructive and draconian gun control bills that were VETOED last year are back in the House once again!!!! There is also legislation that will effectively END gun ranges in the State of New Hampshire! There are two hearings in the House and one in the Senate. BOTH are important … Read more
As bullying in the local schools remains a big problem, parents should consider testifying for legislation that could help parents and students. There’s a public hearing next Wed. on House Bill 1335, “An Act relative to private rights of action regarding pupil safety.”
We learned that despite a Democrat majority, the Republicans were able to help flip and table a handful of bills today thereby minimizing the damage of today’s list of horrible legislation. We tabled the dreadful Carbon Tax bill (HB735-FN-A), tabled the Road Usage Fee (HB478-FN-A) and passed the DWI Prohibition Bill (SB34). We also tabled … Read more
We learned that the NH House lost a truly wonderful, educated and endearing State Representative. We all will miss Rep. Dick Marple and it was appropriate to take time to remember him during the start of session today and pass an unanimous resolution memorializing him and his accomplishments. May his memory be a blessing always. … Read more
