NH State Senate Week In Review | Death Penalty

Pic of the week!

Nashua,NH - Week in In review: Concord,New Hampshire yesterday the NH State Senate voted down the repeal of

the death Penalty. The vote was 12-12 with the deciding vote cast by Sen. Russell Prescott, R-Kingston.

Although 58% percent of Granite Stater's were for the repeal they voted it down,in the words of Chairman

Buckley, "you have again ignored the will of your constituents". The majority of Granite Starer's are in favor

of the minimum wage increase by a whopping 76% and this bill was passed by the house but a similar bill was

struck 13-11 in the NH State Senate, that law future is still uncertain or is it? Marijuana decriminalization

is supported by a whopping 69% (i believe it is more) yet the NH State Senate has refused to even hear the

marijuana bill. For the Gambler's out there looks like you will have to travel to MA, or CT to spend your

money in other States. Hey they got to put their kids thru school too! They may have even been able to lower

your property taxes. Are you starting to see a pattern? Are the lawmakers you voted for representing you or

their own interests? So why not take a chance this November, it is quite obvious voters have to take a hard

look at their incumbents this year hey, it doesn't look like we could get any worse?

 And yeah, the gas tax overwhelming voters were against and now we have to pay $.04 more for twenty years thats if they don't extend it!
