I support HB 1666 because incorporating capacity planning into the state’s 10-year energy strategy strengthens reliability, improves transparency, and helps prevent costly last-minute decisions. Long-term planning protects ratepayers and supports a resilient, forward-looking energy system for New Hampshire

I strongly urge you to support HB 1666. It is a smart and needed bill to help strengthen our state's energy planning and to help provide a more cogent analysis of energy demand. Thank you for your consideration, John Walsh

This is common sense legislation that will enable the state to better plan for electricity challenges in the future.

There is no evidence that Sharia Law could ever be enforced in New Hampshire. Muslims follow US law. This bill just singles out Muslims for criticism. It is clearly discriminatory.
