Maddy summaryHB 1218 requires mobile home park owners to provide written notice within 14 days to sellers about specific repair needs for a home sale, replacing vague requirements with clear, detailed lists. It mandates park owners to disclose written criteria for approving new tenants and provide sellers with a direct contact method (email/phone) for inquiries, requiring responses within 2 business days. For parks with over 25 units, the bill reduces monthly lot fees by 25% after the first denied qualified buyer (represented by a real estate agent under contract), with an additional 25% reduction per subsequent denial - capping at 75% off the original fee until the home sells. These changes directly affect mobile home sellers, park owners, and prospective buyers in larger mobile home parks, aiming to increase transparency and fairness in the sales process.

Maddy summaryHB 1702 requires pharmacies and medical facilities in New Hampshire to post a standardized notice about mifepristone (a drug used for chemical abortions) when dispensing it. The notice, displayed prominently in specific areas like waiting rooms or pharmacy counters, states that mifepristone may sometimes be reversible if the second pill hasn’t been taken, and provides a contact for resources. Noncompliance could result in a class B felony charge for providers or civil lawsuits seeking damages for patients harmed by the lack of notice. The bill directly affects pharmacies and clinics dispensing mifepristone, with no estimated state or local costs.

Maddy summaryThis bill requires New Hampshire to obtain approval from municipal officials before transferring state-owned class I or II highways (major roads still in use for public travel) to towns or cities. It directly affects towns and cities, as they gain the right to object to transfers that would discontinue or reclassify active highways. The key mechanism mandates that the state must first offer such property to the local municipality, and if the town objects, the transfer cannot proceed. The bill also applies to other state-owned property transfers, requiring municipal approval before the state can sell or lease land no longer needed by the government.

Maddy summaryHB 112 would require all students enrolled in New Hampshire's public universities and community colleges to pass the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) civics naturalization test. This policy would directly affect every undergraduate and graduate student at these institutions, as it mandates successful completion of the test typically taken by immigrants seeking U.S. citizenship. The bill's description lacks specific mechanisms or exemptions, making its practical implementation unclear given the test's standard purpose. As currently stated, it represents an unusual policy requiring students to meet a requirement designed for naturalization applicants, not general education. The bill remains pending in committee after a majority committee recommended passage with an amendment.

Maddy summaryHB 232 seeks to protect medical professionals' rights to refuse providing certain medical services based on personal beliefs, such as specific procedures or treatments. It directly affects doctors, nurses, and other healthcare workers who may object to participating in services conflicting with their conscience. The bill would establish legal protections preventing employers or institutions from forcing such professionals to provide those services, while requiring referrals to other providers. This is a policy change focused on expanding professional autonomy in healthcare decision-making.

Maddy summarySB 36 requires health care providers and medical facilities to collect and report standardized abortion statistics to the state health department. It directly affects hospitals, clinics, and physicians performing abortions by mandating specific data collection on procedures, including patient demographics and gestational age. The bill establishes a uniform reporting system to track abortion data, replacing inconsistent current practices. This focuses on improving data accuracy for public health analysis, not altering abortion access or policy.

Maddy summaryHB 565 would allow individuals under 21 to enter veterans' clubs, private clubs, and social clubs if clubs establish specific, written conditions - such as requiring adult supervision or designating age-appropriate areas. This directly affects minors who are currently barred from these venues due to existing age restrictions. The bill requires clubs to create and follow clear policies for underage access without specifying exact rules. It modifies current restrictions to permit entry under club-defined conditions, focusing on venue autonomy rather than state-imposed standards.

Maddy summaryHB 661 requires New Hampshire's Department of Health and Human Services to ensure children in foster care receive federal benefits like Social Security and veterans' payments. Within 60 days of a child entering foster care, the department must check for existing benefits or apply for them, and if it becomes the representative payee, it must manage those funds exclusively for the child's unmet needs (not for care costs) using special accounts like ABLE accounts. The bill mandates annual reports to the child and family, prohibits using benefits to cover care expenses, and requires returning any remaining funds when the child exits foster care.

Maddy summaryHB 619 would appropriate $1.2 million from the general fund to the Solid Waste Management Fund for local waste management programs. This funding would directly support communities and agencies managing landfill operations, recycling initiatives, and waste reduction efforts. The bill was referred to committee but was ultimately reported as "Inexpedient to Legislate" on October 30, 2025, with a unanimous 25-0 vote to not advance it further. As a funding measure, it does not create new policies but allocates existing resources to an established state fund. The bill remains inactive following the committee's decision.
