relating to slavery and involuntary servitude. Providing that slavery and involuntary servitude shall be prohibited in the state of New Hampshire.

This bill proposes adding a new article to the New Hampshire Constitution that explicitly states all people have the right to be free from slavery and involuntary servitude. It directs local officials to place this question on the November 2024 ballot for voters to decide whether to adopt the change. If approved by two-thirds of those voting on the specific amendment, the prohibition would become law upon the governor's proclamation. The measure does not alter current laws but seeks to codify this fundamental right directly within the state's constitutional text.
