ok we’re getting started for real now… one of the drawbacks of doing this hybrid is that I can’t see who’s actually speaking when the speaker is someone from the physical committee room, so I don’t have names for those 2 previous Limbaugh likers, unfortunately.Permalink On twitter.com

See this island that says “Tilton Island Park” and is only accessible by the Tilton Island Park Bridge? It’s actually in Northfield. They want to fix that. Seems reasonable to me. #NHPoliticsPermalink On twitter.com

Next up WOULD be HB189, but we already heard that last time, and @ivyvann motioned to withdraw it, so we voted to do so unanimously, so there’s no need to hear it again.Permalink On twitter.com

wait dang we’re already voting to retain HB132; I meant to raise an objection… we voted 18-1 to retain it; I was the “1” because I thought we should just pass it now instead (this was the minimum lot size bill).Permalink On twitter.com
