#nhhouse #nhpolitics

Fav quote read today "Transparency is the first step toward #accountability" @Loganbipps

#sb156 allowing car dealers to act as agents of DMV passes 176 to 166

Amendment to include bi-annual vehicle inspections added to the bill FAILS 218 to 130.

#sb 57 Vote for title loans passes 180 to 171

This bill allows short term title loans with annual rates of 300%. #nhhouse voted that 18% was too high for Towns to charge but 300% is ok? I voted in the minority.

Amend sb57 to limit Town interest rate

rate but ALLOW predatory high interest loans up to 300% to title loan lenders. #nhhouse #nhpolitics Amendment fails 213 to 134.
I voted against the amendment
