HB 234: relative to the statewide education property tax and excess revenue from games of chance.

HB 234, introduced in 2025 but withdrawn before passage, proposed adjusting New Hampshire's education property tax system. It would have required the tax rate to generate $363 million annually for education, while allowing the commissioner to reduce that target by the excess revenue from state gambling funds (after subtracting $6.6 million, based on 2023 data). This mechanism aimed to lower the property tax burden by offsetting education funding needs with gambling revenue. The bill was withdrawn on February 6, 2025, and did not become law.

HB 476: relative to restrictions on elective abortion.

HB 476 restricts abortions after 15 weeks gestation in New Hampshire, making "late-term elective abortion" illegal unless a medical emergency (defined as conditions endangering the mother's life or causing serious bodily harm) or a fetal abnormality incompatible with life exists. Healthcare providers must perform an ultrasound to determine gestational age before 15 weeks and report medical emergency justifications to health authorities. Violations carry criminal penalties (class B felony with fines up to $100,000) and civil liability for damages. The law affects healthcare providers performing abortions and pregnant individuals seeking later-term procedures, with exceptions for medical emergencies or fatal fetal conditions. It takes effect January 1, 2026.

HB 523: relative to the office of child advocate's oversight of restraint and seclusion reports.

HB 523 requires child welfare facilities and schools to submit restraint and seclusion reports to the Office of the Child Advocate within 5 days of an incident, creating a confidential central reporting location for these records. It mandates that the Office of the Child Advocate gain access to facilities and staff for independent review of such incidents, with new classified staff positions (including two case aides and a children's services analyst) established to handle this oversight. The bill also clarifies that escorting a combative child while maintaining an upright position does not count as restraint, and specifies immediate phone notification for child fatalities or serious injuries. This legislation directly affects children in care, facilities using restraints, and the Office of the Child Advocate, which gains formal authority over these reports.

HB 444: relative to a tenant's right to notification prior to the sale of a multi-family home.

HB 444 requires landlords of multi-family residential properties (like apartment buildings) to provide tenants with 45 days' written notice before finalizing a sale, and gives tenants the opportunity to make a purchase offer matching any third-party offer. This directly affects tenants living in multi-unit housing when their landlord plans to sell the property. The key mechanism is the mandatory 45-day notice period plus the right to submit a purchase offer, ensuring tenants have time to consider buying the property they reside in. The bill aims to provide tenants with greater stability and opportunity during property sales.
