====================================================================== From the HSLDA E-lert Service... ====================================================================== New Hampshire: Victory HB 368 DEFEATED 324 to 34! Dear Members and Friends, Homeschoolers in New Hampshire won a decisive victory for freedom and liberty as the New Hampshire House of Representatives responded to your voices to kill HB 368 today by a landslide vote of 324 to 34. This vote is a testament to the hard work of thousands of homeschool families from all over New Hampshire. These families have worked over the past several weeks to educate their representatives about a possible attempt to amend New Hampshire's homeschool law, substantially increasing regulations. Homeschoolers and supporters from all over the country were watching to see what would happen in New Hampshire, and it is with great delight that we report a resounding victory. For the past several years a vocal group of pro-regulation educators, led by Education Chair Emma Rouse and Representative Judith Day, have sought to impose unreasonable regulations and additional governmental intrusion on homeschooling families in New Hampshire. After two legislative committees studied this issue and recommended no further regulations, leadership within the Democratic caucus seemed poised to side with Rouse and Day in attempting to fight the issue on the floor of the House and submit a draconian amendment to the law. But homeschoolers defended these freedoms by calling and visiting legislators and by showing up at the Capitol for two weeks in a row to show strong opposition to this legislation. Your efforts have secured a tremendous legislative victory for homeschoolers in New Hampshire. HSLDA commends the many homeschoolers and organizations like Christian Home Educators of New Hampshire who coordinated the activities needed to win this vote. It is a privilege to stand with freedom-loving people, and HSLDA appreciates your support as we work together to preserve these important freedoms. Standing with you, Michael P. Donnelly, Esq. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- -> "I saved my entire membership fee with one discount" "We've been a Liberty Mutual customer for over 12 years.
