Wednesday, May 11, 2016 No. 38X HOUSE JOURNAL No. 12 (Cont.) Wednesday, April 20, 2016 Rep. Hinch moved that the House adjourn. Motion adopted. HOUSE JOURNAL No. 13 Wednesday, May 11, 2016 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 the member from Salem, Representative Robert Elliott. Almighty God, from whom we come and to whom we all shall one day return, we thank Thee for another 24 hours of this precious gift we call life. As we begin our difficult day, we ask Thee to give us keen minds, and pure hearts to do what is best. We ask Thee to bless each one of us this day, as we few, we precious few, go about our work representing all of our people. We ask Thee to keep us humble when our egos begin to swell. We ask Thee to grant us patience when our tempers begin to grow thin. We ask Thee to grant us renewed strength when we start to grow tired. Remind us to be kind to one another and let us not be politicians, but public servants. Thus will we always be faithful stewards of all the heavy responsibilities that You have placed upon each one of us. May God bless the Speaker of the House as he continues to walk in paths of righteousness and justice. May God bless our gloriously beautiful State of New Hampshire and with all the dangers within and without our country, we ask Thee to continue to still “Stand beside us, and guide us through the night with a light from above. From the mountains, to the prairies, to the ocean, white with foam. God bless America, our home sweet home.” Amen. Representative Mary Cooney, member from Plymouth, led the Pledge of Allegiance.

Wallner requested Unanimous Consent of the House regarding memorial remarks for the former member from Mont Vernon, the Honorable Linda Foster. MOMENT OF SILENCE A moment of silence was observed in honor and in memory of the former member from Mont Vernon, the Honorable Linda Foster. MOTION TO PRINT REMARKS Without objection, the Speaker ordered the remarks made by Rep. Wallner during Unanimous Consent be printed in the Permanent Journal. REMARKS Rep. Wallner: Good morning Mister Speaker and members of the House. I rise before you this morning to celebrate and remember our colleague, the Honorable Linda Foster. I am joined at the podium today by mem- bers of the Democratic leadership, including the Chairs and Vice Chairs when Linda was serving as Deputy Speaker. I also wish to recognize some visitors in the gallery. Former Speaker Terie Norelli, former House Clerk Karen Wadsworth and members of Linda Foster’s family, including her husband, Scott. Welcome. Linda came to the House in 1993 and served on four committees over the course of her eight terms on the House. She was on Municipal and County, Local and Regulated Revenues, Finance and Rules. In 1999, Linda was named as an Assistant Democratic Leader and in 2001 was appointed as Democratic Policy Leader. After the 2006 election, when Democrats took the majority of the New Hampshire House, after a hiatus of 150 years, Speaker Terie Norelli asked Linda Foster to be her Deputy Speaker. Representative Foster served as Deputy Speaker for four years. It did not take Linda long after her arrival at the State House to get busy representing her constituents and New Hampshire’s small towns. An often repeated mantra of Linda’s would be, “Those people from the cities, they don’t get what’s it like to be from a small town.” Linda fulfilled her role as advocate for small towns by passing into law legislation that did much to help at the local, municipal and school district levels. Teaching came naturally to Linda, a skill she embraced all her life. Linda taught special education at the Mount Hope School for the Handicapped in Nashua and later served as a substitute teacher and a special education assistant at the Milford Area Senior High School. Many of Linda’s friends have described her as being fun and indeed Linda had a playful side. A visit to her office at the State House was an encounter with Linda’s menagerie of frogs, wild, natural and just plain gorgeous. On returning from a trip to the Southwest, Linda gleefully showed off her newly acquired cowgirl boots. A beautifully tooled pair of handsome boots that she relished wearing to the Speaker’s podium while wielding the gavel. As Speaker Norelli said at Linda’s memorial service in March, “Even in the politically-charged environment of the State House, Linda was one of those rare politicians with whom everyone got along. She was always ready with a smile and a warm greeting and she made friends with Democrats and Republicans alike, taking time to get to know them personally. I never heard Linda speak harshly about her colleagues, but ever the teacher, she might suggest some changes in their grammar.” For her it was never about personality, but about the policies we were considering. She brought her unique viewpoint to the table. She wasn’t in it for any kind of glory or recognition. Just to do the right thing for her community, as she also did by serving on the board of Southern New Hampshire Services. The rest of us benefited from her experience with that organization as well, because she learned about the needs of the people of our state and she shared that knowledge with her colleagues. Linda’s family was always her top priority and it was those shining stars, her grandchildren, who ultimately caused her to retire from the House. We are very grateful to Linda and her family for the time that Linda gave to us. I want to assure Linda’s family that her work here was valued and helped to make New Hampshire a better state for our citizens. We will miss her dearly.

  • Governor Sununu, We, the Undersigned
    Governor Sununu, We, the undersigned Democrats in the New Hampshire House, implore you to immediately issue a “stay-at-home” order to slow the spread of COVID-19 in New Hampshire. As our hospitals and the mayors of our largest cities have noted, every day that passes without a stay- at-home directive brings exponential growth to the health risks faced by Granite Staters, and unsustainable pressure on New Hampshire’s healthcare services which will lead to unnecessary loss of life. As you have acknowledged, we likely remain far from the peak of COVID-19 infections in New Hampshire. Many of us own or work at small businesses and understand that ordering non-essential businesses to close is a drastic step that will exacerbate the disruption COVID-19 has already brought to everyday life. However, as we have seen in other countries and other states, taking decisive action will slow the spread of the virus, save lives and allow our economy to rebound stronger and faster. The steps we have taken so far, which include telling people to keep their social gatherings to under 10 people, are simply not enough. Monday’s announcement of the first death from COVID-19 in New Hampshire emphasizes the urgency in our communities to take decisive steps to combat this deadly virus. Closing non- essential businesses and ordering people to stay at home are bold steps critical to that effort. Please join the states across America, including our neighbors Massachusetts and Vermont, that have taken these critical steps to slow the spread of COVID-19.

Wednesday, February 18, 2015 No. 20X HOUSE JOURNAL No. 6 (Cont.) Thursday, February 12, 2015 Rep. Flanagan moved that the House adjourn. Adopted. HOUSE JOURNAL No. 7 Wednesday, February 18, 2015 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 Guest Chaplain, Reverend Doctor Dawn Berry, Pastor and teacher at Brookside Con- gregational Church in Manchester. O God, the morning is cold and the snow is deep. Some of us have worried about the economic impact of plowing and salting and roofs collapsing, while others of us put on skis and snowshoes and start up snowmobiles contributing to New Hampshire’s tourism economy. Still others go someplace warmer and wait until the snow is gone. We have such different perceptions of snow. Here, in the New Hampshire House, 398 have gathered to work with the snow outside, each with his or her own perspective they contribute because diversity of ideas stimulates collective creativity. Yet, we confess that difference can also create conflict and the hardening of positions where overcoming is prized more than common ground. So today, O God, stir creativity. Open us up to possibility. In Your way move this body toward a common goal and common ground. Remind us of the trust that has been placed in this body to serve justly and with a generosity of compassion for the most vulnerable in our state.
