HB 385: reestablishing voter identification exceptions.

HB 385 modifies voter ID requirements by replacing the previous "challenged voter affidavit" process with new procedures. It allows voters without photo ID to cast ballots by signing an affidavit, but now requires the poll clerk to take a 2x2 inch photo of the voter (unless religious objections apply, using an existing exemption process). Voters must receive an explanation of ID rules, and election systems must log when voters use this affidavit option instead of presenting ID. The bill directly affects voters who lack photo ID at polling places, particularly those with religious objections to photography. It removes the prior "affidavit ballot" system and adds specific photo documentation steps to the voting process.

HB 402: relative to liability as taxable income of education freedom account payments.

HB 402 amends state law to clarify that funds deposited in Education Freedom Accounts (EFAs) are not considered taxable income for parents or students at the state level. The bill directly affects families using EFA programs by removing state tax liability on these education payments. It specifies that while state taxation does not apply, federal taxation may still apply to EFA funds. This change modifies RSA 194-F:2, VI to explicitly state that EFA funds are exempt from state income tax.

HB 363: establishing redistricting criteria.

HB 363 establishes six specific criteria that New Hampshire legislators must follow when redrawing state legislative districts. The bill requires districts to comply with federal and state constitutions, be based on total population, maintain geographic integrity of communities, and consider "communities of interest" (like shared cultural or economic ties) without favoring political parties or racial groups. It explicitly prohibits plans that intentionally favor or disfavor any political party, incumbent, or racial/ethnic group. This bill directly affects how New Hampshire's state senate and house districts are drawn, ensuring the process prioritizes fairness and legal compliance over partisan or demographic manipulation.

HB 537: relative to electric rates approved by the public utilities commission for residential condominium property.

HB 537 ensures that condominium associations without commercial use pay the same residential electric rates for septic systems and well pumps as individual residential units, regardless of whether the homeowners association (HOA) is billed directly by the utility. It requires utilities to split shared meter costs equally among residential units and bill all such units at residential rates - even if the HOA is the customer or shared meters are used. The bill applies to public utilities, rural electric cooperatives, municipal aggregations, and municipal electric utilities. It specifically targets non-commercial condominiums under RSA 356-B, preventing higher commercial rates for these essential residential services.
