Thursday, May 2nd N.H. House Session

SB 63 adoption of public health ordinances by municipalities (SUPPORT)

Currently health officers have unlimited authority to make any ordinance they wish. This bill limits their ordinance authority to only "nuisances" and I now realize this term is pretty well defined in law. By passing this bill, health officers will no longer be able to make any ordinance in the next pandemic like we saw during Covid with mask mandates and such.

SB 417 relative to out-of-home placements for children (SUPPORT  AMENDMENT)

RebuildNH does not have a position on the underlying bill itself, but the amendment to SB417 removes the sections we have been concerned about for months that could limit due process for parents in regard to DCYF. Thank you to the members of House Children and Family Law for listening and addressing our concerns. Please tell your representatives to support the amendment to SB417.
