This should be celebrated in the Men's Movement, but also treated very delicately as it is in a fragile state. This could stand to be a stable step forward for the issues of men and the well being of the whole community. A stampede of congradualations should go to those who worked to make this happen, men and women alike.

Getting a roll call vote was essential on passing this bill

Now men in NH can push forward from more and more funding of research to counter some of the years of bogus reports boasted by the feminists.

This is good news! Congratulations Scott. The vote was not a landslide; 13 for 10 against. A pretty close shave! With the passage of anti- paternity fraud legislation in Georgia and similar legislation pending in other states, we are devouring the huge elephant of misandry one bite at a time.
Keep at it!

Great News Scott!
I wonder if there is any way to get info on this to send to our respective state legislators and say "Hey! Look what NH is doing, how bout us???"
Good stuff. Thanks Scott for all you do.

Is NH the only state that has a specific Bill for men?

Does anybody know if one party has been more supportive of men's issues than the other? I know that the bill for the Office of Men's Health was proposed by a Republican in California and that Democrats have traditionally been supported by feminists, but the distinction seems to have blurred recently. Unfortunately, some of us are liberal on some issues and conservative on others, which makes it hard to pick a party to support.

It is still not to late for this commission to be hijacked by the feminutzis and turned into a "Men's Commission on how you all can better serve your mistresses properly, you sexist pigs."
The price of this victory is perpetual vigilance against such a forseeable happening.

After rereading this article a little more slowly, I'm not so sure this commission a good thing. Note that according to the article "Boyce said the bill will not cost the state any money even though a financial analysis on the bill predicts annual costs of more than $60,000. Boyce said those assume personnel, office and operating costs that are not planned." Does this mean that the commission will be a sham that allows the state to pretend that it's doing something about men's issues while doing nothing? Perhaps I missed something and the idea is that funding will come entirely from private sources. How can the commission operate with no personnel, no office, and no funds to cover operating expenses?
Also, equalitarian62 asked, "Does anybody know if one party has been more supportive of men's issues than the other?" This article gives us a little insight at least about this case, "Republicans used their majority power to pass the measure," and later says "Democrats argued that there can be no comparison between the problems of women that led to a Commission on the Status of Women, and those that men face."
