I appreciate the goal of clarity in this bill. However, I oppose it as written because it does not include requirements for plain language or accessibility. If ballots are expanded without corresponding accessibility safeguards, this may unintentionally create barriers for some voters.

It shows a hearing on HB1742 but it is not in the draw down menu so I am voting against 1742 here.

I support HB 1388 because each constitutional amendment deserves a clear, separate question on the ballot. Ensuring that voters never cast a single vote on multiple amendments protects transparency, prevents confusion, and upholds the integrity of New Hampshire’s constitutional amendment process
