Thursday the Senate met in Session via Zoom. The Senate will be meeting in session again next week on Thursday at 10AM. To sign in to speak, register your position, and/or submit testimony, please visit: http://gencourt.state.nh.us/remotecommittee /senate.aspx Week in Review This week we were joined by Senator Becky Whitley to discuss child care scholarships, HHS committee hearings, session, and the Sununu Youth Services Center Senator Rosenwald’s Restaurant Relief Act of 2021 Unanimously Passes Senate Ways and Means Committee March 1st “The COVID-19 pandemic has had devastating economic impacts on our restaurant and lodging industries. As amended, the Restaurant Relief Act of 2021 puts money directly back in the pockets of our restaurants and lodging industries, providing much needed financial relief and saving thousands of jobs across the state. I thank my colleagues for their bipartisan support and look forward to bringing this important legislation before the full Senate.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua) Senate Republicans Support Irresponsible Tax Breaks for Out of State Corporations March 1st Republican members of the Senate Ways and Means Committee voted to pass SB 13 in a vote of 3-2. Section I of SB 13 makes an irresponsible change to the business profits tax and business enterprise tax that will cost New Hampshire $79 million in the next budget. “Section I of SB 13 is a fiscally irresponsible measure that will not provide relief to New Hampshire’s businesses. Now is not the time to offer tax breaks to out of state corporations that will cost the state $79 million during a time of economic instability with no real proposal for making up the loss.” - Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua) and Senator Lou D'Allesandro (D-Manchester) Senator Perkins Kwoka Advocates for Fair and Transparent Redistricting March 1st “This year, more than ever, we must each do everything we can to protect our democracy and ensure that no voter has reason to doubt the integrity of our process. Far too often there’s at least a perception that legislative district maps are drawn behind closed doors. Passage of this bill would help ensure a fair, open, and honest redistricting process. The majority of Granite Staters support independent redistricting, as illustrated by the resolutions that have been passed in communities across the state; including two communities in Senate District 21. The message from the voters of New Hampshire is clear: we must prioritize independence and fairness in our redistricting process.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Rebecca Perkins Kwoka (D- Portsmouth) Senate Ways and Means Unanimously Passes SB 101, Relieves Tax Burden for Small Businesses March 1st “New Hampshire’s economy is driven by small business owners and self employed entrepreneurs. SB 101 is a common sense measure that will relieve thousands of our small businesses of an unnecessary financial and administrative burden. I thank my colleagues for their bipartisan support of this important measure.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Donna Soucy (D-Manchester) Week in Review Senate Energy Adopts The Inclusive Outdoors Act Despite Pushback March 2nd The Senate Energy & Natural Resources Committee voted to pass SB 114-FN, known as The Inclusive Outdoors Act in a vote of 3-2 with Senator Bob Giuda (R-Warren) and Senator Kevin Avard (R-Nashua) voting against the bill. “Today’s vote to pass SB 114 was a vote to make New Hampshire a safer, more inclusive place to live and recreate for all Granite Staters. This bill seeks only to ensure that our beautiful public lands can be equally enjoyed by all, without fear of discrimination, harm, or threats of violence. This legislation was reached through a very collaborative process, has been fully vetted, and is entirely consistent with the LEACT Commission’s findings and recommendations. I am grateful for the support of my colleagues Senators Gray, Perkins Kwoka, and Watters, but deeply disappointed by the comments made by Senator Avard and Senator Giuda that reflected a lack of understanding of the experiences of the Granite Staters who testified about the discrimination they have experienced. I would like to thank Senator Gray in particular for his comments in support of promoting inclusivity and acceptance for all in our state, and I am glad this legislation will move forward.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Becky Whitley (D-Hopkinton) Senate Commerce Adopts SB 107, Advances Financial Assistance for Businesses Affected by the COVID-19 Pandemic March 2nd “When GOFERR created the Main Street Relief Fund last year, it was specifically designed to assist small businesses impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic. Unfortunately, in an unintended consequence of its design, newer small businesses weren’t able to take advantage of this program. This cut out a large segment of our small businesses, which are filling new needs and creating new jobs in our communities. SB 107 will make sure these newer businesses can access any future discretionary federal relief funds coming to the state, regardless of their date of establishment.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Rebecca Perkins Kwoka (D-Portsmouth) Senator Perkins Kwoka Introduces SB 126-FN, Relative to Landlord Tenant Proceedings March 2nd ““This legislation is an effort to make small tweaks to give folks a little extra room in the face of extraordinary circumstances. After receiving input from stakeholders, I’m pleased to offer an amendment to the bill that will ensure that tenants be allowed to make payment on their rent up to the date of their eviction hearing, thereby protecting landlords income and keeping tenants in their homes. Additionally, the legislation enables struggling tenants to apply for and receive rental assistance prior to an eviction notice being issued. This creates a critical guardrail for tenants struggling to pay their rent, and will help to ensure situations don’t hit a crisis point before they can be remedied.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Rebecca Perkins Kwoka (D- Portsmouth) Senate Finance Passes SB 44, Senator Kahn’s Workforce Pathway Program March 2nd “The Workforce Pathway Commission established in SB 44 will identify how to align existing federal and state job training resources and federal student aid grants to offset the costs of education providers preparing unemployed and underemployed adults for the high demand jobs needed by NH employers, building a better credentialed workforce. I thank my colleagues for their continued bipartisan support of creating pathways into short-term workforce training programs for our most in-demand jobs in health care, advanced manufacturing, technology, trades, and automotives.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Jay Kahn (D-Keene) Week in Review Senate Republicans Continue to Push Flawed School Voucher Legislation March 2nd Senator Jeb Bradley (R-Wolfeboro) introduced SB 130 to the Senate Education Committee, a near mirror bill to HB 20 which was unanimously retained by the House Education Committee. “New Hampshire overwhelmingly rejects the idea of a school voucher program. SB 130 is a dangerously flawed piece of legislation that diverts public taxpayer dollars away from our public schools and to private, religious, and out-of-state institutions with no real plan for quality oversight. Investing in our public school system gives every student the opportunity to grow, learn, and thrive. SB 130 is wrong for our students and wrong for New Hampshire” - Senator Jay Kahn (D-Keene) and Senator Sue Prentiss (D-West Lebanon) Senator Watters Introduces Legislation to Expand Access to Electric Vehicles, Lowering Greenhouse Gas Emissions March 3rd Senator David Watters introduced Part I of SB 131, relative to electric vehicle supply equipment and infrastructure and relative to state motor vehicle fleet management. “Approximately 40% of our regional greenhouse gas emissions can be attributed to transportation emissions. By expanding our electric vehicle supply equipment (EVSE), grid infrastructure, and EVSE installation along interstate highways, New Hampshire could become a real leader in minimizing our transportation system’s fuel reliance, promote sustainable growth, and help build the clean energy economy and workforce.” - Prime Sponsor Senator David Watters (D-Dover) Senate HHS Passes SB 150 - Medicaid Dental Benefits March 3rd “It is long past time that we provide dental benefits to the over 120,000 Granite Staters who rely on Medicaid for their health care. The economic and social benefits of preventative dental care cannot be understated for both the individuals receiving care and long term state savings in long term dental-related health care. I thank my colleagues for their continued bipartisan support of this crucial legislation.” - Prime Sponsor Senator Cindy Rosenwald (D-Nashua) SB 123 Unanimously Passes Senate HHS Committee March 3rd Senate HHS unanimously passed an amended version of SB 123, making it unlawful to require any employee or applicant for employment to pay the cost of a COVID-19 test as a condition of employment. “As in other employment settings, this bill ensures that employees will not bear the financial burden of employer-required COVID-19 testing. While this access to testing is essential in mitigating the spread of COVID-19, SB 123 removes any financial barrier to that testing, allowing Granite Staters a safe return to work." - Senator Tom Sherman (D-Rye) and Senator Sue Prentiss (D-West Lebanon) Senate ED&A Adopts SB 33, relative to Native American name restoration March 3rd “Passage of this bill is a critical step in more fully acknowledging and appreciating the Native American ancestral lands of New Hampshire.

  • 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.

  • January 16, 2018 Chris Sununu Governor of New Hampshire 107
    January 16, 2018 Chris Sununu Jeb Bradley Governor of New Hampshire New Hampshire Senate Majority Leader 107 North Main Street 107 North Main Street Concord, NH 03303 Concord, NH 03303 Chuck Morse Gene Chandler New Hampshire Senate President New Hampshire Speaker of the House 107 North Main Street 107 North Main Street Concord, NH 03303 Concord, NH 03303 Dear Governor Sununu, Senator Morse, Senator Bradley, and Speaker Chandler, In the coming months, the New Hampshire legislature will be responsible for reauthorizing our state's Medicaid Expansion, the New Hampshire Health Protection Plan, a program that currently covers more than 50,000 Granite Staters. Medicaid Expansion provides vital services to those who wouldn’t be able to afford health insurance on their own. It also plays a crucial role during the opioid crisis, with more than 20,000 Granite Staters having accessed Substance Use Disorder treatment services through the program. It is vital that Republicans and Democrats alike come together and reauthorize a clean version of Medicaid Expansion. Our objective is simple: reauthorize Medicaid Expansion so that nobody loses their health insurance. Every single one of those more than 50,000 New Hampshire residents who rely on the program for quality care must be able to continue to rely on this program after the reauthorization. That is our bottom line and fundamental guarantee. This should be a simple decision for New Hampshire Republicans, who have pledged to work to reauthorize the program as well. Hopefully Republicans join us in the understanding that any reauthorization that kicks people off of insurance isn’t really reauthorization at all; it’s a partial repeal and that is simply unacceptable.
