My opposition is in relation to the Non-Germane Amendment #2025-0357h as presented to HB118.

Robin HelrichOpposeHopkinton, NHfor Myselfflagged non-germaneFeb 19, 2025

OPPOSE Amendment #2025-0357h to HB118.

GABRIELLE GONTHIERNeutralNORTH SWANZEY, NHfor MyselfFeb 19, 2025

I think it's ironic that right now there are bills coming for consideration that you might pass and take other people's rights away while you seek more for yourself. I would ask that as you take your lunches you think of all of the rights your considering taking and make sure it's not for selfish reasons or religious ones. If you're going to take away people's rights bodily autonomy, or to use bathrooms, or to trust their data is safe I hope you yourself wouldn't mind losing that right.

Every job in the public sector doesn't give breaks that frequently, why should the State House?

The Amendment to HB 118 is a long list of terrible ideas. Vote ITL

Johnna DavisOpposeGilford, NHfor Myselfflagged non-germaneFeb 19, 2025

A good Representative would draft a bill to stop allowing these non-germane amendments from happening. This is one of the reasons people dislike Washington politics and it has no place in New Hampshire.

Patricia AnastasiaOpposeLondonderry, NHfor Myselfflagged non-germaneFeb 19, 2025

I do not support the non-germane amendment to this bill. I do support the unamended HB118

Patricia AnastasiaNeutralLondonderry, NHfor MyselfJan 23, 2025

I appreciate and agree with a requirement for breaks in long sessions, but this issue would be better addressed as a change to the House Rules, rather than legislation.

Allison WongSupportNashua, NHfor MyselfJan 23, 2025

Dear Chairman and Members of the committee. I would hope that this is just practice, instead of legislation. I think we have enough members with health issues that a planned break is necessary.
