The Commerce Committee of the New Hampshire House of Representatives heard testimony from five witnesses Thursday on HB 1506, a bill to establish a state Do Not Mail registry. (For an earlier post on this bill, read here.)
According to observers, Commerce Committee members attending the hearing were sharply negative about the bill, questioning its viability and emphasizing its negative economic impact.
Because of the requests of additional witnesses to testify, the Committee announced that it would resume the hearing in two weeks, on Thursday, January 24.
Witnesses who testified on Thursday included: Rep. Susi Nord (D), the bill's sponsor; Rep. Jane Beaulieu (D); Rep. Neal Kurk (R); George DeWolf, the activist-constituent who requested the bill from Rep. Nord; David Paige from NAPUS (his testimony is here); and Robert Baker, a rural letter carrier.
The bill will likely be assigned to a subcommittee after the Jan. 24 hearing.
