New Hampshire要求退出美国的提案被否决
By HOLLY RAMER, Associated PressCONCORD, N.H. (AP) — The New Hampshire House overwhelmingly rejected a
proposal Thursday that called for the state to secede from the United States
, although 13 lawmakers supported it.Under the secession proposal, voters would have been asked to amend the
state constitution to add that New Hampshire “peaceably declares
independence from the United States and immediately proceeds as a sovereign
nation. All other references to the United States in this constitution,
state statutes and regulations are nullified.”Changing the New Hampshire constitution requires the support of three-fifths
of the Legislature to put the question to voters, who then must approve
amendments by at least a two-thirds majority.More than 300 lawmakers voted against secession. But supporters of the
measure like Matthew Santonastaso, a Republican from Rindge, argued it was
just a matter of time before the union collapses.
