New Hampshire House votes to defy Fed ID plan
March 12, 2006
Libertarians are celebrating after the New Hampshire House of Representatives voted 270-84 to refuse cooperation
with the hated "Real ID" act. Real ID is a Federal mandate which attempts to force states into a standardized drivers license system at taxpayer expense. Freedom advocates argue it would be at the expense of privacy as well, giving the Feds too much power along the way. Federal officials have said it would help them track terrorists and criminals.
"Give me liberty or give me death," said State Rep Neal Kurk, speaking in favor of the bill on the House floor. The chamber roared with applause.
House Bill 1582 forbids all state agencies from participation in Real ID mandates, and asserts that Real ID "is contrary and repugnant to Articles 1 through 10 of the New Hampshire constitution..."
The lopsided anti-Federal vote was a shock even to proponents of the bill. Real ID passed the U.S. Senate 100-0 last year and generated little debate. But as states like New Hampshire have taken a closer look at what it will require of them, liberty activists and local government officials have been teaming up to draw a line in the sand between Washington and their own states.
New Hampshire in particular has become increasingly restive since 2003, when it became a migratory destination for "Free Staters," libertarian activists who move into the state to fight for freedom.
HB 1582 next goes to the New Hampshire Senate; if it passes there it will have to be signed by the Governor. In the meantime, Federal pressure will likely mount in opposition to this bill.

wait.......ludahai said:One more reason I am proud to be a Granite Stater!
The spirit of the Old Man of the Mountain is still looking on!
At least one state in the Union still has the spirit of federalism that is enshrined in the Constitution.
My_name_is_not_Larry said:wait.......
your in taiwan......
Anyways. I would like to say that I have officially moved in Dover NH!
:2wave: Hello all you New Hampshirians! I'm a brand new New Hampshirian! :mrgreen:
then, why does your location say......?ludahai said:I was born and raised in NH. Spaulding HS, class of 1989.
I didn't know that. A friend told me it was New Hampshirian. I was only going by what he was saying.It is New Hampshirite! If you are going to move the the greatest place in the world, you can at least get it right.
Ok, I'll just go back to Wisconsin. I have alot of money to spend. another 1st class trip back to wisconsin wouldn't hurt me a bit! (Although the wife might have some problems with that).Frankly, I wish ALL carpetbaggers would just leave NH alone. Go away Massholes who are dirtying the State with their politics. Go away Free Staters looking to make their political points. LEAVE NH ALONE!

ruin your state? What did I do but go by what I was told? Your location said that you were in taiwan, I went by the most likely choice and thought that you were born and raised there.ludahai said:Because my CURRENT location IS Taiwan. Geez. Just because I am in Taiwan NOW, doesn't mean I am not a native of somewhere else. Please, you are bringing down the average IQ of New Hampshire if you can't figure that out.
It is New Hampshirite. Granite Stater is also acceptible.
Please do. Frankly, I am not the only New Hampshirite who is tired of outsiders coming to New Hampshire and ruining what has been a good thing for our State.

My friend said that it was New Hampshirian, he is a good buddy of mine, I went by what he said. Again, whats wrong with that?
And no, I am not going to move, the neighbors have been quite friendly, much more friendlier than you. Instead of telling me off, they helped me move in and wished me the best of luck getting settled in. Sheesh, whats your problem?
What?ludahai said:Because I am sick of outsiders coming in and trying to make New Hampshire into their political image. Massholes have moved in for decades and have brought their failed liberal policies into the state. Now Free Staters are trying to make New Hampshire their personal political football. If you genuinely like New Hampshire and adhere to the values that have long been held by its people, welcome. If you are like the liberal Massholes or Free Staters, then get out.
