Rep. James Thibault announced the passage of several education-related bills in a series of posts on January 7, 2026. The legislation addresses reforms in school audits, anti-bullying measures, and restrictions on certain medical interventions by schools.
In his first post at 20:17 UTC, Rep. Thibault stated, “HB121-FN, amended to reform the school audit process, passes 187-154 https://t.co/Ycqz99Lvfw”.
A few minutes later at 20:24 UTC, he shared an update on another bill: “HB131, which was amended to address bullying and cyberbullying in schools, providing resources for victims, passes 190-149”.
In his final post at 20:33 UTC, Rep. Thibault reported the passage of a third measure: “HB360, which stops schools from prescribing medications or operating on students, passes 183-155. We will ALWAYS stand up for students and their safety!”
The newly passed HB121-FN is intended to change how school audits are conducted in New Hampshire by implementing revised procedures for financial oversight within educational institutions. HB131 aims to strengthen protections against bullying and cyberbullying while offering support services to affected students. HB360 restricts public schools from directly prescribing medication or performing medical operations on students; such decisions are generally expected to remain with families and licensed healthcare professionals.
These developments reflect ongoing legislative efforts in New Hampshire’s House of Representatives to address both student well-being and administrative accountability within the state’s education system.
