CONCORD, NH -House Majority Leader Jason Osborne released the following statement after Gordon Darby asked that a federal judge hold state officials in contempt.
“Our state made a policy decision to end mandatory vehicle inspections. Well within our rights as part of the contractual agreement. We held up our end of the bargain we had with our vendors and ended everything lawfully. However, that same foreign corporate vendor wants to force taxpayers to fund their frivolous lawsuit, just because they don’t like the reality of the situation. Seeing how they’re acting, it’s apparent that other states should join us in kicking Gordon Darby to the curb.”
“You can fine us and hold us in contempt, but it does not change the truth. Vehicle Inspections are dead in New Hampshire. We will not comply and we will not go back. So, with all due respect, we’ve had enough of this G(ordon) D(arby) nonsense.”
