Adult Winter Program
Movie Night


“Death At A Funeral”, a zany British comedy, will be shown on Wednesday, February 2 at 6:30 p.m. as part of the Adult Winter Program.  A funeral turns into a crazy debacle of exposed family secrets and misplaced bodies in this comical romp.  Patron Mort Glazer recommended this movie to us, saying it was “absolutely hysterical.”   Popcorn and soft drinks will be served.

Letter


To my constituents in Allenstown, Epsom, & Pittsfield:
This week the House continued committee work. My committee heard HB136, my bill repealing athlete agent registration, and HB88, canceling the planned transfer of liquor enforcement to the Department of Safety. We met afterward, and voted 12-0 to recommend HB88, HB92 – last week’s bill on forester license expiration dates – and HB119 –last week’s delegation bill – to the House. HB136 generated a lot of debate, with some members concerned that unscrupulous agents would exploit students. Others, including a high school teacher who knows today’s students, didn’t share that worry! The final vote was 7-5 in favor.


I also presented six bills to other committees. HB135 limits the amount of mileage a state employee can be reimbursed, as a management tool. This may require some wording changes to clarify the intent and make sure employees are reimbursed promptly for actual mileage. HB133 deletes the state specific minimum wage, while leaving intact the details of how the federal minimum is applied. HB134 eliminates the need for people over 70 to justify their “permanent” walking disability plates every five years. HB142, deleting prohibitions on street sales of artificial flowers, and HB143, repealing restrictions on stove polish, were well received by the Commerce Committee, which appreciated my attempts to repeal obsolete laws. I’ll be working with them to extend HB143.


HB141, eliminating cable TV as a protected utility in landlord-tenant disputes, sparked much discussion in the Judiciary Committee. They are developing a range of amendments, some just to clarify that it only applies to landlord paid TV, others to include exemptions for cable internet and phone.


Anyone interested in what is going on in the State House is invited to email or call me. Anyone who wants more information than I can fit into a letter in the Sun should email me for my newsletter.
