died · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor

relative to eliminating voter identification exceptions.

Maddy summaryHB 1370 directs the Secretary of State to prepare and distribute secure, durable containers and tamper-evident sealers to town and ward clerks for preserving ballots before state elections. The bill also requires these officials to use special containers specifically designed for separate ballots related to questions posed to voters. Although the legislation was adopted by the conference committee, it was ultimately laid on the table and did not become law before the end of the session.

Co-sponsor HB 1369

Failed · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor

relative to the verification of voter rolls every 4 years.

Maddy summaryThis bill would require local election officials in New Hampshire to verify voter registration lists every four years, starting in 2027. Under the proposed rules, officials must notify voters via mail and online if their names are not updated, giving them 30 days to reregister before names are removed from the list. A voter's name would be kept on the list if they voted in the preceding four years or were added to the list since the last general election. The bill also mandates that officials file a certificate with the Secretary of State confirming the completion of this verification process.

Co-sponsor HB 1294

Failed · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor

establishing a committee to study ways to facilitate municipal compliance with Clean Water Act requirements.

Maddy summaryThis bill would declare all regulations from the federal Environmental Protection Agency invalid within New Hampshire and prohibit local governments from enforcing or collaborating with the agency. It asserts that the EPA lacks constitutional authority and mandates that the state's Department of Environmental Services handle all environmental protection rules instead. The legislation directly affects counties, cities, towns, and other local entities by removing their ability to comply with federal Clean Water Act requirements. Although the bill proposes a committee to study municipal compliance, the final text instead voids federal mandates and shifts full environmental regulatory responsibility to the state.
