Protect Private Property
In 2009, Governor Lynch and primarily Democratic legislators passed a law which attempted to take $110 million from a privately funded medical malpractice fund.
The state never contributed any money to this fund. All the monies were paid by healthcare providers from around the state. The New Hampshire Supreme Court held that law unconstitutional because it violated the vested property rights of the policyholders
(Click here to see court opinion). Governor Lynch has refused to obey this law and continues efforts to take these funds from the owners. Many citizens and organizations fearful of this unconstitutional assualt on private property have provided important support to the JUA policyholders. This site recognizes these efforts.
