This change will present difficulties for some alumni, but for the safety and well being of everyone, those involved and those coming from afar, we have to make this decision now. With June 12th not that far away, reservations need to be cancelled and rescheduled, parade units have to booked and rescheduled. We want everyone to be able to enjoy their weekend festivities and feel safe and able to gather without the worry of catching this ugly virus.” LeBlanc added, “For those of you who do not remember, SHS Alumni used to celebrate Homecoming Weekend with many events and even a pa- rade that was on a smaller scale. October should be fun! Let’s all look forward to making this the best alumni reunion yet. Stay well, stay strong and let’s move forward with plans for a great 150th celebration.” The last year has been challenging, admitted LeBlanc, "but Stevens High School Alumni Association, the oldest active in the USA, will get through this.

Serving as House Speaker from 2000-2004, and again over this past year, has been an honor and major highlight of my tenure in the House.

Her Excellency, Governor Margaret Wood Hassan, joined the Speaker on the rostrum for the day’s opening ceremonies. MOMENT OF SILENCE The House observed a moment of silence to honor and remember the victims of the Paris attacks. Prayer was offered by Paul C. Smith, Clerk of the House. O God, the Grand Governor of all, we come before You today with heavy hearts from the recent bloodshed on French soil, but hearts full of purpose as we meet today to discuss the epidemic that has affected many of us in this Chamber in one way or another. Please touch the lives of those afflicted by addiction, bless those who work to aid those in sickness and comfort those families who have suffered loss. Let us join the call for peace and unity in this troubled time and be beseech thee, O God, to hold back the hands that kill and maim and turn around the hearts that hate, granting Your strong spirit of peace; peace that passes our understanding but changes lives. We also pray for our House Chaplain Kate today, unable to be with us as she underwent emergency surgery this week. Please grant her comfort and speedy recovery. All this we ask, almighty Creator, in peace and purpose. Amen.

  • New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 (2014)
    New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 (2014) Title of Bill: Senate Bill 367 Purpose: A 4.2 cents-per-gallon motor fuel increase, dedicated to the state’s transportation system for use in resurfacing and reconstruction on secondary roadways, municipal bridges, and Interstate 93.i Status of Amendment: Passed New Hampshire Senate Bill 367 Signed into law: May 20, 2014 Senate House FOR 15 193 AGAINST 9 141 History State Gas Tax The gas tax in New Hampshire had not been increased since 1991, when the 16 cents-per-gallon rate was raised to 18 cents; all of the revenue produced by the gas tax in New Hampshire is directed toward the Highway Fund.ii Gas Tax Distribution & Transportation Funding Sources New Hampshire requires all Highway Fund revenue be allocated to only highway-related purposes. The Highway Fund is comprised of revenue generated by the state gas tax, motor vehicle registration fees, and plate fees. Each cent of the state gas tax generates approximately $8.4 million, of which 12 percent ($1 million) is distributed to the Block Grant Aid for cities and towns.iii vi Need New Hampshire has close to 17,000 miles of state and town roads, turnpikes and interstate highways. Municipalities own and maintain almost 70 percent—or 11,865 miles—of these roadways. Of the 3,795 bridges in the state, municipalities own and maintain 1,685 bridges (44 percent). Prior to the passage of SB 367, these municipalities relied on state and federal funding sources to make improvements. With support from these sources declining and only two significant sources of
