This bill prohibits municipalities from enacting ordinances related to firearms, abortion, religion, and open containers of alcohol in public. It specifically states that no municipality can create any ordinance, bylaw, rule, or regulatory provision that applies to firearms, abortions, religion (unless it equally applies to non-religious activities), or open containers of alcohol in public. The bill takes effect 60 days after its passage.
According to the fiscal note, the bill is not expected to have any fiscal impact on the state, county, or local governments. However, the New Hampshire Municipal Association suggests that it may impact the revenue generated by local rules regarding open alcohol containers. Overall, the bill is seen as duplicating existing statutes and not having a significant fiscal impact.
