Letter


To my constituents in Allenstown, Epsom, & Pittsfield:
This week I introduced HB1191, prohibiting the state fire marshal from mandating sprinklers in residences, despite what the building code board voted in November. New Hampshire has the best fire safety record in the country, so the need for sprinklers is less here; they are also more expensive since most houses are on wells and any system would have to be kept from freezing. The opposition at the hearing was mostly from fire professionals, who tend to want to prevent fire-related deaths at any cost.


Wednesday the House met in an extended session. The first bill, HB160, had started as a confirmation of your right to defend yourself anywhere you had a right to be. It was amended to clarify that merely showing a weapon, in a threatening situation, was not subject to criminal penalties as “brandishing.” We then passed HB523, requiring DNA testing of all convicted felons, but killed HB665, which would have expanded driving under the influence to include any chemical. When this language was described as a “trial lawyer’s dream”, a lot of Representatives decided not to make the change!


HB368, which would have imposed strict regulations on homeschoolers, was killed 324-34, with only Representative Yeaton from this district voting to keep it alive. The many home schooled families present let out a polite cheer at this result, but were chided by the Speaker on House decorum. HB642, establishing an income tax, was killed 244-72, with Representatives Brown and Yeaton voting to keep the bill for further study.


Anyone interested in what’s going on at the State House is invited to email or call me; those who’d like a more extensive report than I can fit in The Sun should email me for my newsletter.

Letter
So Here It is. What Have We Learned In 2,064 Years?


“The budget should be balanced; the Treasury should be refilled; public debt should be reduced; the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled; and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”


- Cicero - 55 BC


Evidently nothing
