The N.H. House met Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week, starting at 9 a.m. and going until about 7 p.m. each day.
I do not recommend that we ever do this again unless we actually meet in Representatives Hall. The Sports Complex in Bedford is a huge venue, and a necessary place to hold the session in order to meet the CDC guidelines of maintaining 6-foot distance.
