Summary: The committee opened its labor hearing on SB 655 and outlined the day’s schedule, including a later working session on SB 416 and an executive session planned for 2:30 p.m. Senator Dan Innis introduced SB 655, describing it as a technical bill affecting employee leasing companies/professional employer organizations (PEOs), workers’ compensation coverage, and a Senate-added minimum wage exemption for minor league baseball players covered by a collective bargaining agreement. He said the PEO change would let either the PEO or the client business hold workers’ comp coverage, while still requiring coverage, and argued it would align New Hampshire with most other states and reduce barriers for small businesses and multi-state employers. He also said the baseball provision would clarify wage treatment for minor league players and support the Manchester team. Justin Warell of Insperity testified in support of the PEO portion, explaining that PEOs provide HR, payroll, benefits administration, and workers’ compensation administration through a co-employment model. He said the bill would preserve mandatory coverage while allowing flexibility for the client or PEO to maintain the policy, which could help clients who already have preferred coverage or who face cost or administrative issues in multiple states. He noted that most clients would still remain under the PEO’s policy and said Insperity would submit written comments. Committee members asked about how the arrangement would work, whether the client or PEO would pay, and whether the bill would affect liability insurance packaging; Warell said the employer still bears the cost and that the bill mainly gives larger clients an option. One member asked him to remain available for possible follow-up after hearing from the labor department. Stephen Gonzalez of Major League Baseball testified in support of the minor league baseball exemption. He said MLB and the MLB Players Association negotiated a collective bargaining agreement that already provides players with salary, housing, meals, per diems, health and retirement benefits, disability continuation, tuition assistance, and signing bonuses. He argued that treating players as hourly workers creates impractical time-tracking problems because players do work-related activities on their own time, and said the bill would recognize them as salaried workers and avoid litigation over what counts as hours worked. Committee members questioned why the exemption was needed if players are already salaried and whether MLB could simply amend its CBA; Gonzalez said the bill would help prevent wage-and-hour lawsuits and noted that similar exemptions have been enacted in other states. No vote was taken during the hearing, and the chair indicated the bill would be considered for executive action later that afternoon.

Summary: The House convened with a quorum, offered the Pledge of Allegiance and prayer, approved the prior day’s minutes, and adopted House Resolution 4691 recognizing Presidents’ Day. Supporters of the resolution praised presidential leadership and civic ideals, while one member used the occasion to note the historical harms and contradictions of figures such as Washington, Lincoln, and FDR. The resolution was adopted by voice vote, and the House also recognized visiting former legislators and Black leaders in the chamber. The chamber then took up several bills, often suspending the rules to move measures directly to third reading. Second Substitute House Bill 1923, creating a local option for passenger-only ferry districts, passed 84-11 after debate over ferry reliability, local control, and possible tax “stacking.” Substitute House Bill 2475, requiring language-accessible public programs and services, passed 62-33 amid support for access and safety and opposition over unfunded mandates, overregulation, and concerns about technology and assimilation. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2508, clarifying the Office of Independent Investigations’ authority, passed 90-6 after a technical amendment; supporters said it would improve police accountability processes, while some noted remaining concerns about investigations. House Bill 2464, requiring reporting and law-enforcement response data for incidents at private detention facilities, passed 58-38, with supporters emphasizing transparency and critics calling it political and questioning the agency chosen to collect the data. Substitute House Bill 2203, creating reckless interference with emergency barricades, passed 94-2 after testimony about flood rescues and the need for stronger deterrence. Second Substitute House Bill 2384, increasing oversight of continuing care retirement communities, passed 78-14; supporters cited senior protections and solvency, while opponents worried about duplicative costs. Second Substitute House Bill 2333, allowing certain campaign funds to be used for security and related protections for elected officials and candidates, passed 71-21 after debate over political violence and concerns about self-dealing. Second Substitute House Bill 1909, creating a Court Unification Task Force, passed 56-36, with supporters citing inconsistent court administration and opponents defending local control. The House also passed Second Substitute House Bill 1906 on water system rate transparency and consumer protection, 91-1; Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2548 on health care market standards and mergers, 53-38; Substitute House Bill 2405 establishing a PTSD pilot program with early treatment and return-to-work provisions, 90-1; and Substitute House Bill 2323 creating a Blue Envelope Program for autistic and neurodiverse drivers during traffic stops, 92-1. Throughout the day, members frequently split along lines of transparency, consumer protection, public safety, local control, and concerns about mandates or regulatory burden.

Washington 2025-2026 Regular Session

House Floor Session Feb 16th, 2026

Washington House Floor Meeting

Summary: The House first considered House Bill 2156, which would authorize investigators in the Attorney General’s Office to serve electronic search warrants in limited economic and financial crime investigations, especially organized retail crime. Members debated a series of amendments on training standards, scope, background checks, warrant service, and definitions of covered crimes. Some amendments were adopted, including changes clarifying training and decertification standards, narrowing the scope of economic and financial crimes, and refining warrant-service language; others were rejected or ruled out of scope. The amended striking amendment passed 52-39, and the bill then passed final reading 54-43. The House then moved through several other measures. House Bill 2219, dealing with child care operational efficiency and licensing, was amended to strengthen safety language around opioids in licensed child care settings and passed 95-1. House Bill 2124, which raises the threshold for lump-sum retirement allowance payments, passed 96-0. House Bill 2266, concerning permanent supportive housing, traditional housing, and indoor emergency housing, was amended to add local-government notice, transparency, community-meeting, and siting provisions, then passed 56-40. Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1784, on certified medical assistants and telemedicine-related practice, received a cleanup amendment and passed 96-0. The House also passed House Bill 2523, which codifies the Community Reinvestment Program, after rejecting an amendment that would have redirected some funds to economic development; the bill passed 88-9. House Bill 2113, allowing certain medical supervision of diagnostic radiologic procedures in emergency settings, passed 97-0. House Bill 2632, updating state law terminology from “alien” to “non-citizen,” passed 58-39 after debate over precision versus respectful language. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2476, expanding seating limits for theaters serving alcohol, passed 81-50. Finally, House Bill 2320, addressing firearms manufacturing involving 3D printers and CNC machines, was heavily amended to narrow and clarify language around code and additive manufacturing before the striker passed. The bill’s supporters framed it as a response to ghost-gun risks and recent incidents involving 3D-printed firearms, while opponents raised constitutional concerns about speech and gun rights. The transcript cuts off before the final vote on HB 2320 is recorded.
