I oppose this bill because it reduces transparency, access, or fairness in public processes and does not meaningfully improve outcomes for New Hampshire residents.

Making more easily concealable, potentially deadly weapons readily available to adults AND children who will obviously be able to get their hands on them, is some of the most idiotic legislation ever proposed. Constituents are owed an accurate explanation as to why time is being spent on this..
