The Senate of the State of New Hampshire (officially: Senate of the State of New Hampshire , informally: New Hampshire Senate ) is the upper house of the New Hampshire General Court , the legislature of the US state of New Hampshire . He has been meeting since 1784.
The Chamber of Parliament is composed of 24 senators, each representing an electoral district. The senators are each elected for two-year terms; there is no limit to the terms of office. The Senate boardroom, along with the House of Representatives, is located in the New Hampshire State House in the capital, Concord .
Tasks of the Senate
As in the upper houses of other states and territories as well as in the US Senate , the New Hampshire Senate has special tasks compared to the House of Representatives that go beyond legislation. It is the responsibility of the Senate to confirm or reject nominations by the governor in his cabinet, other executive offices, commissions and authorities.
Compensation to the senators
Under Article 15 of the New Hampshire Constitution, Senate members receive an expense allowance of $ 200 for their entire term of office ; the president of the Senate receives an increased allowance of $ 250. In addition, travel allowances are granted for a maximum of 45 meeting days. Additional compensation such as attendance fees will not be paid.
