Post-Election State Senate Preview 2021-2022 N.H. Senators on Legalization: 10 Support — 2 Undecided — 12 Opposed Sen. John Reagan (R-Deerfield) has strongly supported all cannabis policy reform bills. He responded yes to all three MPP survey questions. Sen. Tom Sherman (D-Rye) voted yes on the medical cannabis bill in 2013 and the decriminalization bill in 2015 as a member of the House. In 2019, he voted yes on HB 364 (medical cannabis home cultivation) and spoke on the Senate floor in favor. He expressed support for legalization and regulation while HB 481 was being considered in 2019 and offered to help work out a compromise on the bill. Sen. Harold French (R-Franklin) voted yes on decriminalization bills as a member of the House in 2015 and 2016 and as a senator in 2017 when the bill became law. He voted yes on the medical cannabis home cultivation bill in 2019 (HB 364), and he was quoted in the Concord Monitor in 2019 expressing support for HB 648 (adult-use legalization and regulation) — although he said the bill needed more work before he could vote for it. Sen. Suzanne Prentiss (D-Lebanon) responded favorably to the question, “Should NH legalize the recreational use of marijuana?” on a candidate survey administered by Citizens Count. Her comment: “With proper addiction programs put in place at the same time." Sen.

Fall Elections Are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the Many Impacts Of
Fall Elections are Less Than 3 Months Away One of the many impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic is that some events that are non-pandemic-related get lost in the all-COVID, all-the-time news coverage. In the midst of the recent NH House and Senate meetings in-person at different locations than their usual State House chambers, the filing period for all State elective offices quietly opened and closed. Other than one US Senator whose term does not end this year - Sen. Maggie Hassan (D) - every NH state, county and local elective office is up for grabs and there are some surprises in the NH House, Senate and Executive Council line-ups for the September primary and the November general elections. In the House, 38 Democrats and 37 Republicans did not file for re-election, which will leave some big holes, especially in committee leadership positions. The chair of the Commerce & Consumer Affairs Committee, Ed Butler, is stepping down and the Science and Technology Committee is losing both its chair and vice-chair, Bob Backus and Howard Moffett. The Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee will lose its vice-chair, Polly Campion. And the Children and Family Law and Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committees will both lose their vice-chairs, Skip Berrien and Beth Rodd. In addition, two Division chairs of the House Finance Committee will not be back next session because they are seeking higher office: Patricia Lovejoy (D) is running for the Executive Council seat left open by the retirement of Russell Prescott; and Susan Ford (D) is running for State Senate District One, the seat now held by David Starr (R).

Senate Rules Committee Votes to Consolidate Bills Bipartisan Agreement Will Streamline Legislation in 2021
New Hampshire Senate NEWS RELEASE FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: December 21, 2020 CONTACT: Carole Alfano, 603.496.0412 Senate Rules Committee votes to consolidate bills Bipartisan agreement will streamline legislation in 2021 CONORD, NH – On a 6-0 vote, members of the Senate Rules Committee today agreed to consolidate all bills for the coming session into categories, clearing the way for better facilitation when public hearings are held remotely beginning in January. Senators called the bi-partisan accomplishment a “great collaboration”. Chairman Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro) thanked all 24 senators for their willingness to participate in the process and staffers who worked so diligently to the organize some 250 bills. He said, “We may not agree on the content of every bill, but I believe the process that the Select Committee on Legislation undertook to categorize all of the proposed legislation was fair and inclusive.” Bradley also thanked Senators Sharon Carson and Cindy Rosenwald as well as bipartisan senate staffers whose expertise was” indispensable in the process." Sen. Donna Soucy (D- Manchester) emphasized the collaborative process and thanked her fellow senators for their input by adding, “By consolidating bills, we will be able to move forward with an efficient session that focuses on the immediate and long-term needs of the state.” The committee members agreed that senators will still have the option for a bill to be considered as a “stand alone” if that is their preference. However, due to consolidation, bills will have one designated sponsor, instead of individuals. The committee stressed they will work with the Office of Legislative Services to ensure that all senators who sponsored legislation that was consolidated are given credit for the bill.
