  • Post-Election State Senate Preview
    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. Rebecca Perkins Kwoka (D-Portsmouth) responded yes to all three MPP survey questions — expressing support for allowing adults to use cannabis, taxing and regulating cannabis, and allowing adults to cultivate cannabis at home.

  • 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.

  • 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).

  • From State Representative Rosemarie Rung
    Town Councilors: I am unable to attend the November 7 meeting, but I want to provide an update, as the bills that I will be sponsoring or co-sponsoring have been signed off and will soon be assigned to a committee to begin the legislative process. I want you to know why I support these bills. Title: requiring food service establishments to establish food allergy awareness procedures. Sponsors: (Prime) Rosemarie Rung, Janice Schmidt, Dan Feltes, Joseph Guthrie, William Marsh, Cam Kenney This bill came at the request of a Merrimack constituent whose family member died from an allergic reaction from food served at a NH restaurant. I worked on this after consultation with the NH Restaurant and Lodging Association and the NH HHS department. It essentially extends new NH food safety food code to restaurants that are not under the state’s authority (i.e., cities that have jurisdiction for restaurant licensing/inspection), will require restaurants to include menu language to instruct patrons to notify the server of any food allergy (required language now warns of raw or undercooked meat), and will allow restaurants to voluntarily be designated “food allergy friendly” if they meet national standards. Title: Establishing a committee to study the labeling of products containing PFAS. Sponsors: (Prime) Rosemarie Rung, Betty Gay, Deborah Hobson Following conversations with Eileen and Sarita about PFAS waste entering the treatment plant from car washes, I talked with Clark Freise about how to control PFAS discharge to municipal systems. He said most users don’t even know PFAS is in the materials they use.

  • S/L Sign on Letter Re: Rescue Plan State/Local
    February 17, 2021 U.S. House of Representatives Washington, D.C. 20515 U.S. Senate Washington, D.C. 20510 Dear Members of Congress: As elected leaders representing communities across our nation, we are writing to urge you to take immediate action on comprehensive coronavirus relief legislation, including desperately needed funding for states, counties, cities, and schools, and an increase in states’ federal medical assistance percentage (FMAP). President Biden’s ambitious $1.9 trillion American Rescue Plan will go a long way towards alleviating the significant financial strain COVID-19 has placed on our states, counties, cities, and schools, and the pocketbooks of working families. Working people have been on the frontlines of this pandemic for nearly a year and have continued to do their jobs during this difficult time. Dedicated public servants are still leaving their homes to ensure Americans continue to receive the essential services they rely upon: teachers and education workers are doing their best to provide quality education and keep their students safe, janitors are still keeping parks and public buildings clean, while healthcare providers are continuing to care for the sick. Meanwhile, it has been ten months since Congress passed the CARES Act Coronavirus Relief Fund to support these frontline workers and the essential services they provide. Without significant economic assistance from the federal government, many of these currently-middle class working families are at risk of falling into poverty through no fault of their own. It is a painful irony that while many have rightly called these essential workers heroes, our country has failed to truly respect them with a promise to protect them and pay them throughout the crisis.
