So the NH House passed the buffer zone bill, 162-100. See the roll call for the “ought-to-pass-as-amended” motion here. Have you called your state senator yet to ask for a “non-concur” vote on SB 319?
There were ten roll call votes on the bill when it came to the House floor, most on procedural matters. (See the docket here for more information.) Along with the main vote, there were three others that I found very interesting: two that would have applied buffer zones to other businesses, and one to limit debate to 30 minutes per side (including questions).
There are 121 state representatives who managed to go 0-for-4, all in one day. They voted to nullify the First Amendment outside abortion facilities. They twice voted to keep “buffer zones” a special privilege accorded to abortion providers. They voted (unsuccessfully) to limit debate. They are the hardest of the hard-liners.
Here they are. 117 Democrats and 4 Republicans, if anyone’s counting.
