Red Flag Bill Vote in the NH Senate
The Red Flag Bill vote will happen in the New Hampshire Senate session on February 5th.
Senate Bill 555 – relative to critical risk protection orders – was heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee on January 20th. The majority of the committee has since voted ‘Inexpedient to Legislate‘ on this legislation. The bill will now make its way to the full senate for a vote.
Another bill, Senate Bill 463 – relative to possession of firearms in safe school zones – was also heard in the Senate Judiciary Committee on January 20th. The majority of the committee also voted ‘Inexpedient to Legislate‘ on this legislation. This bill will also be voted on by the full senate on February 5th.
To recap why these bills are anti-2nd Amendment legislation that need to be stopped:
Red Flag Bill
This legislation is some of the most draconian gun control legislation to ever be presented in the NH Legislature. Bloomberg’s organization has already spent over $1 MILLION to push NYC-style gun control in one of the safest states in the country. In fact, NH was named THE safest state in the country in 2025.
Red Flag laws violate our 1st, 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 6th Amendment rights that are supposed to be protected by our legislators. Even New York’s Red Flag law was struck down by their Supreme Court. Yet gun controllers continue to push the very same laws in the Granite State.
They claim these laws are about safety, but they literally have nothing to do with safety, and everything to do with gun confiscation. They are discriminatory laws that are only applied to law-abiding gun owners. They are laws that allow ‘thought police’ to make assumptions about what a person might be thinking about thinking about doing, sometime in the future.

School Zone Ban
Yet another ‘Gun Free Zone‘ bill that seeks to endanger the lives of students, law-abiding citizens, and teachers. This legislation will criminalize pistol/revolver holders who are currently allowed, by federal law, to carry concealed on school grounds. This legislation will be a BEACON to criminals who seek to harm the defenseless. Why? Because law-abiding citizens will follow the law, despite the potential of being put in harm’s way.
This also puts women who need to protect themselves AT RISK of being harmed by an abusive ex or a stalker because they will not be able to carry concealed when dropping their children off at school, especially if they walk their children to school.
