HB224 repeals the criminal and civil penalties from the fetal life protection act.
The New Hampshire State House of Representatives passed HB224 on March 23, 2023 by a vote of 205 to 178. We have assigned pluses to the nays because the right to life is the most fundamental, God-given, and unalienable right asserted in the Declaration of Independence and protected by the U.S. Constitution and HB224 violates that right. Furthermore, there should be a greater effort to provide specific protections for the right to life in compliance with the 4th, 5th, and 14th Amendments.
