State Senate Votes 13-11 to Table HB 370 – The Education Scholarship Credit Lives!!!
HB 370, the government-school monopoly, anti-education-choice-bill from the union-owned Democrat House, that would have repealed the education scholarship tax credit that passed last year, has been tabled by the New Hampshire State Senate. Tabling a bill is not legislative death but it is not unlike locking a prisoner up in a dungeon and forgetting they are there. Someone might wander down to take a peek, but more likely than not no one will ever visit it again.
There are several reasons for doing it, but more than likely this was to give cover for folks who would rather leave things as they are. As a way to end the repeal effort without actually having to vote pass or fail.. Or maybe we got lucky. I don’t much care what or why, just that it’s done, at least until Fred Lynn the ACLU, and the out of state wing-nuts who are planning to file suit at the bench of left-wing Judge John “I redefined domicile in time for the November Elections” Lewis….who will be asked to block the program on the grounds that it violates the separation of church and state.
Today we are victorious. Tomorrow is another day.
