What happened
Michael Granger filed a legislative service request for the 2027 session concerning surveillance on public ways and property in New Hampshire. This move follows New Hampshire's existing strict laws, which have limited automated license plate readers since 2016. These laws have prevented companies like Motorola Solutions from establishing a foothold in the state.

Why it matters
New Hampshire's regulatory framework serves as a possible template for other states, including Florida, which Ron DeSantis cited when urging legislation to bar cameras. The restrictions on automated license plate readers could threaten the revenue of surveillance technology providers if other states adopt similar models.
