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

In the current bill, the language regarding the effective date of the sunset provision is amended to remove the scheduled effective date of July 1, 2025, thereby allowing the increased fees to remain in effect indefinitely. The bill also includes a new provision stating that it will take effect upon passage.
