Date: June 8, 2018
Location: Concord, NH
Issues: Civil Liberties and Civil Rights

Today, Governor Chris Sununu issued the following statement after signing HB 1319 into law:

"Discrimination -- in any form -- is unacceptable and runs contrary to New Hampshire's Live Free or Die Spirit. If we really want to be the Live Free or Die State, we must ensure that New Hampshire is a place where every person, regardless of their background, has an equal and full opportunity to pursue their dreams and to make a better life for themselves and their families. This bill will ensure equal rights, equal opportunity, and nondiscrimination protections in the areas of housing and employment, and today I signed HB 1319 into law."
