AFP-NH hopes that this Scorecard will aid you in your efforts to remain well informed regarding some of the key legislative activity that took place in Concord over this past year and its impact in lowering or increasing barriers to success and enhancing a free and open society. This year certainly saw a change in how the Legislature did business, in response to the pandemic. This led to fewer roll calls than in years past, especially in the State Senate. AFP-NH does not score every vote in the House or Senate. Rather, the focus of this Scorecard is to consider the most important votes cast in priority issue ares that impact our society, such as taxes and spending, health care, educational opportunity, worker freedom, regulation, free speech, property rights, ending cronyism, and having a criminal justice system that focuses on rehabilitation. This year, the Legislature had the opportunity to vote on important issues in these areas, which are laid out in the vote descriptions. Within this Scorecard you will find these votes that are essential to removing barriers to opportunity.

Wednesday, February 27, 2019 No. 6X HOUSE JOURNAL NO. 5 (Cont’d) Thursday, February 14, 2019 Rep. Ley moved that the House adjourn. Motion adopted. HOUSE JOURNAL NO. 6 Wednesday, February 27, 2019 The House assembled at 10:00 a.m., the hour to which it stood adjourned, and was called to order by the Speaker. Prayer was offered by House Chaplain, Reverend Kate Atkinson, Rector of St. Paul’s Church in Concord. O God of healing and wholeness, we place in Your hands today all those things that are broken or dysfunc- tional, all those situations affected by division and discord, and we pray that You would restore them. We pray for Your suffering children, especially those dealing with painful injuries: broken bones, and other physical wounds, but also broken hearts and emotional trauma. We pray too for victims of broken homes and broken relationships, for people whose lifeline has snapped due to the loss of employment or housing, and for those who have lost their fragile grip on sanity. We pray for our country, and for the world, plagued by division and weakened by its loss of unity, for the structures and systems that have been damaged as a result, and the people whose lives have been affected. Bring healing to all of creation, O God. Make whole the broken bodies, hearts, and spirits of Your beloved people.
