relative to requiring excess revenues raised through the statewide education property tax to be remitted to the education trust fund and prohibiting the department of revenue administration from setting negative local and county tax rates on real property.

Maddy summaryThis bill would require municipalities to send any excess money collected from the statewide education property tax to the state's education trust fund instead of keeping it locally. It also prohibits the state revenue commissioner from setting negative tax rates on real property to offset other taxes. These changes aim to ensure that surplus education funds are directed toward the state education trust while preventing specific tax rate adjustments. Although the bill was introduced, it was laid on the table and did not become law during the 2024 legislative session.

relative to the financing of political campaigns.

Maddy summaryThis bill updates the definitions used in New Hampshire's campaign finance laws to clarify who and what counts as a candidate, political committee, and political party. It expands the scope of what is considered a contribution and expenditure to include various forms of support, such as personal services, childcare costs for candidates, and specific types of communications across digital and traditional media. The legislation also establishes new rules for creating regional political party committees and provides clearer distinctions between partisan and non-partisan voter activities. By redefining these core terms, the bill aims to modernize how political spending and advocacy are tracked and regulated in the state.
