Default Friday February 24, 9am hearing scheduled

According to the Senate website, the Transportation and Interstate Cooperation Commitee has scheduled a public hearing in the large Representative's Hall which is the very large meeting room for NH's 400 State Rep's at the State House at 107 North Main St, Concord on Friday February 24 at 9am.

The Transportation Committee Chairman, Senator Robert LeTourneau, (mail your opinion to) 30 South Ave, Derry NH 03038,is a Republican of Derry and is a long time motorcycle rider and has always opposed any mandatory seat belt or motorcycle helmet laws and he seems to be against a speed limit for boats. As you probably know by now, the Senate has sixteen Republicans and eight Democrats so it would seem likely that speed limits will get sunk by the Senate.


Whether you are for or against speed limits, you know the opposition will be there big-time, so if you can get the time away from work (what's that!), maybe you want to put on your best formal baseball cap and go to the NH State House, Friday Feb 24 at 9am.

If nothing else, it's a good lesson in civics and there will be a surprise NH legislation quiz on the next day Saturday right here in this thread, and all quiz-flunkies (under 80%) will have to go jump in the deep open water in Meredith, next to the ice fishing derby headquarters. 'So, go take a long run off that long Meredith Town dock right ovah thayer, yessuh ayuh!' No exceptions! So, go study up, everyone!
