Where it stands
House: PASSED/ADOPTED WITH AMENDMENT · Senate: PASSED/ADOPTED
Every floor vote on this bill was a voice or division vote, so there is no record of how individual legislators voted.
A bill goes on the consent calendar when the committee vote was unanimous or nearly so, and any members who dissented did not object to placing it there. It then passes without floor debate. Ten members may file a petition to pull a bill off the consent calendar and have it debated and voted on separately.

Committee — OUGHT TO PASS WITH AMENDMENT
This bill would require New Hampshire law enforcement to notify the military authorities if they become aware of a member of the armed forces violating a military protective order. Too often victims of domestic violence fall into the cracks between the Uniform Code of Military Justice and the civilian criminal justice system. Military protective orders are not enforceable by civilian law enforcement, so sometimes, an offender who is in the service is allowed to escape justice for violating an order because their command never learns of the infraction. This bill would help bridge that gap. This bill was requested by the Department of Defense, who worked with military and civilian law enforcement as well as the courts and victim advocates to get the necessary language correct. The committee heard no evidence or testimony against this bill. Vote 13-0.
