NH State Representative Tom Cormen

My votes in the NH House session
of March 26, 2026

We voted on what are called “second-committee bills.” These are bills that passed the House once, but were sent to a second committee because of possible fiscal impacts. You’ll notice that every bill (except for the failed motion to remove HB 1446 from the Table) has “-FN” to indicate a fiscal note.

I wrote about this bill on February 19. I gave a brief floor speech this time, to no avail.
