Packard be printed in the Permanent Journal. MOMENT OF SILENCE A moment of silence was observed in honor and in memory of the victims and their families of the motorcycle accident in Randolph, New Hampshire. REMARKS Rep. Packard: Thank you, Mister Speaker. Could I, and I know I asked you for a little latitude if you would give it to me, could I have Rep. St. Clair and Rep. Walsh come down and join me? I want to bring up a hor- rible tragedy that happened last Friday night. Seven motorcyclists were run over by somebody who shouldn’t 2 27 JUNE 2019 HOUSE RECORD have been on the road. His license should have been suspended. His CDL license should have been suspended and it wasn’t. Blame isn’t going to bring those people back, but this person should not have been on the road and because he was, seven people are dead. Those people were friends of mine and Tom and Charlie. We all belong to an organization; New Hampshire Motorcyclists Rights Organization and they were good people. They were former Marines and they were good Marines and they were up there on charity and they were run over. It was horrific. Some of the police officers up there said it was the worst thing they had ever seen and they actually got sick because it was so bad. This should never had happened. It’s a horrible, horrible tragedy. I lost a friend. He was actually at my wife’s funeral last year and I saw him up in Laconia on the 10th and they said they couldn’t make my wife’s run because they were doing another charity run. So, thank you, Mister Speaker, but what I would like to ask is that maybe first, all Marines stand up. All past Marines stand up and let’s give them a real round of applause. I know they say once a Marine always a Marine. I was not a Marine, but once a Marine always a Marine. These were good people and with your permission, Mister Speaker, could we have a moment of silence for these wonderful people that passed away? Thank you. MOTION TO SUSPEND HOUSE RULES Reps. Ley and Hinch moved that House Rules be so far suspended as to permit introduction and consider- ation, and, if passed, immediate third reading of HJR 3, making temporary appropriations for the expenses and encumbrances of the State of New Hampshire.

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.

HOUSE JOURNAL No. 14 Tuesday, March 25, 2014 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 Jared A. Rardin, Pastor of the South Congregational Church in Concord. O God of life, of the ins and outs, the ups and downs. I counted the steps between the floors today, O God thirty-four. And, for a brief moment, I wondered what it might be like not to be able to climb even one. As I was rushing over my breakfast to get to an early morning meeting, for a brief moment I realized how blessed I am to have food in the fridge and money to pay for it and a job to call me out of bed early. Yesterday, I happened to be looking at my prescription insurance card and for a brief moment, I realized how blessed I am to be able to care for my family as the need arises and not be worried that the next illness will put me at risk of homelessness. O God of small steps, make us grateful for all that we have. We acknowledge that there are indeed times of sadness and sickness and worry in everyone’s life, including our own.
