HB 1487 would have created an independent commission to propose legislative redistricting maps for the General Court to consider. The House adopted a motion of Inexpedient to Legislate by a recorded vote of 189-164 on February 5, 2026, ending the bill.
Constitutional basis: Chamber declining to delegate its own map-drawing role through an ordinary Inexpedient to Legislate vote, a routine New Hampshire legislative disposition.
