HR 8: resolving that the practice of suspending a constitutional officer to be outside the authority designated to the judiciary and appropriately delegated to the general court.

This resolution (HR 8) states that suspending a constitutional officer (like a state judge or elected official) without constitutional authority constitutes removal from office, which the legislature - not the judiciary - holds power to address through impeachment or formal processes. It argues that current suspension practices risk power abuse and conflict with constitutional delegation. The resolution was referred to committee, where it was voted "Inexpedient to Legislate" on March 19, 2025, with no further action taken. It directly affects how state officials are removed and the balance of power between courts and the legislature.

HR 7: instructing the house of representatives to investigate whether grounds exist to impeach Judge David Ruoff.

HR 7 is a procedural resolution directing the New Hampshire House of Representatives to investigate whether grounds exist to impeach Judge David Ruoff. It cites two specific concerns: his ruling ordering over $500 million in state funds without legislative approval (violating constitutional budgeting powers) and his refusal to stay the order pending Supreme Court review. The resolution requires the House to complete this investigation and submit a report by November 1, 2025. This is a purely procedural step authorizing an inquiry, not a vote to impeach, and does not change any laws or directly affect any citizens.
