Failed · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor
establishing redistricting criteria.

Maddy summaryHB 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.

Failed · New Hampshire House · Co-sponsor
establishing a private right of action for civil rights violations.

Maddy summaryHB 641 allows individuals harmed by civil rights violations to sue for damages and injunctive relief. It sets a minimum recovery of $10,000 or actual damages, triples damages for willful violations, and requires courts to award attorney fees to successful plaintiffs. The bill directly affects people who experience unlawful discrimination, harassment, or other civil rights violations covered under RSA 354-B. It creates a private legal remedy without requiring bond for injunctive relief, making it easier for affected individuals to seek redress.
