04/25/26: NEA-NH Legislative Update - Open Enrollment Fails to Pass House—and What to Expect Next
After a great deal of debate and concern expressed by New Hampshire voters and communities across the state, the New Hampshire House failed to pass SB 101, the mandatory open enrollment bill, by a vote of 168-184. The House then tabled the bill; with the deadline having passed to act on it, that means this open enrollment mandate proposal is effectively dead. However, another open enrollment bill is still in play.

"Students with disabilities weren't educated in most cases."
In 1975, Congress passed what is now known as the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA), requiring schools to provide equal access to education for all students with disabilities. The landmark law ushered in an era of inclusion and equity. The current assault on public schools could unravel that progress, leaving students without the support they need.
