The bill H.6, introduced by Representative LaLonde of South Burlington, aims to repeal the sunset provision related to the increase in marriage license fees established by the 2023 Acts and Resolves No. 19. This previous legislation raised the marriage license fee from $60.00 to $80.00, with the portion retained by the town clerk increasing from $10.00 to $15.00, and the amount directed to the Domestic and Sexual Violence Special Fund rising from $35.00 to $50.00.

In the current bill, the language pertaining to the effective date of the sunset provision is amended to remove the scheduled implementation on July 1, 2025. Instead, the bill states that it will take effect upon passage, ensuring that the increased fees remain in place indefinitely without the previously established expiration date.
