State lawmakers voted Thursday in favor of legislation to overhaul New Hampshire’s bail law. Supporters said the bill targets only the most violent and dangerous offenders. The New Hampshire House gave its initial approval to legislation that would make the most significant change yet to the 2018 bail law. Democrats fought to stop the change, arguing that those accused of crimes should not have an extended stay in jail if they are arrested on a holiday weekend.
