Rep. Brodie Deshaies: Legislature working diligently on bills during recess

To The Daily Sun,

The past legislative session ended in June, and the legislature will be in recess until January. Despite limited legislative committee work and no meetings of the entire New Hampshire House, state legislators are still busy during our recess. Many of us begin the long process of drafting legislation.

We start this process in July, and most legislative service requests (LSRs) finish by October or November. We spend hours each week writing legislation, coordinating with other legislators, and working with NH’s Office of Legislative Services. Once we complete this process, we introduce our LSRs as House Bills in January. I will be prime sponsoring 10 bills and cosponsoring about 20 more bills.

Over the coming weeks, I will be writing letters to the newspaper about these different bills. I will also be discussing these bills on my radio show, “All Things Politics,” airing live every first and third Wednesday of the month at 4 p.m. on WASR (97.1 FM and 1420 AM). I will try to have the prime sponsors of these bills on my radio show, and I encourage constituents to call into the show and ask questions or share their opinions.

You can currently view the LSR titles by going to gencourt.state.nh.us and clicking on the “2022 LSRs” tab on the left side of the webpage. If you have any questions about these LSRs, you can call me at 603-387-4210 or email me at BrodieforNH@gmail.com.
