The 2026 New Hampshire legislative session is in full swing, and the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety Committee is already considering a slate of bills that will directly impact your Second Amendment rights.

We are seeing a mix of encouraging pro-gun reforms and dangerous attempts to erode our freedoms. It is vital that you contact your State Representatives to let them know where Granite State gun owners stand.

Below is a breakdown of the legislation we are tracking:

✅ THE GOOD: SUPPORT THESE BILLS
We are urging members to SUPPORT the following bills which strengthen your rights and privacy:

• HB 1793 (Campus Carry Reform): This bill prohibits public colleges and universities from banning the possession or carrying of firearms on campus, ensuring students and staff are not left defenseless in “gun-free zones.”
• HB 1697 (Made in NH Protection): A push for state sovereignty, this bill exempts firearms and accessories that are manufactured and retained entirely within New Hampshire from federal regulations.
• HB 1699 (Boat Carry Reform): This bill clarifies the law to allow the carrying of loaded firearms on boats that are moving at “no-wake” speed, fixing outdated restrictions on law-abiding watercraft users.
• HB 1365 (Licensing Reform): This legislation seeks to improve and clarify the application process for licenses to carry a loaded pistol or revolver, ensuring the process remains fair and efficient.
• HB 1446 (Medical Privacy): This bill would provide that an individual’s Second Amendment right is not denied solely because of their legal use of use of therapeutic cannabis.

Note that HB 1793 and HB 1697 passed out of committee already.

❌ THE BAD: OPPOSE THESE BILLS
We must strongly OPPOSE the following bills that seek to undermine the Second Amendment:

• HB 1642 (“Red Flag” Gun Confiscation): This bill would establish Extreme Risk Protection Orders (ERPOs), allowing firearms to be confiscated from citizens without due process based on accusations, rather than criminal convictions.
• HB 1387 (Liability Expansion): This bill attempts to repeal liability protections for firearm manufacturers regarding specific design features. This is a backdoor method to bankrupt the gun industry through frivolous lawsuits over safe, legal products.

Please use the form above to contact your State Representative immediately.

Tell them to VOTE YES on HB 1793, HB 1697, HB 1699, HB 1365, and HB 1446.
