Why We Oppose Daniel Will
During the COVID-19 pandemic, then-Solicitor General Daniel Will was the leading architect of a dangerous legal theory: that constitutional rights can be "suspended" during a State of Emergency.
The Binford Case
In the Binford case, Will argued that during an emergency, constitutional rights have no effect as long as "the executive's actions were taken in good faith and there is some factual basis for the decision."
The judge in the case noted: "the State asserts that Governor Sununu may use his emergency powers to temporarily suspend or limit fundamental rights."
Bipartisan Rejection
On April 9, 2021, a bipartisan majority of the New Hampshire House called Will's theory "disturbing" and approved legislation to explicitly reject it.
The Laurie List
Will also argued to keep the "Laurie List" of police officers with credibility issues secret from the public. The entire NH Senate disagreed 24-0 and voted to make the list public.
Protect Our Rights
The NH Supreme Court is the final guardian of our constitutional rights. We cannot afford a justice who believes those rights can be suspended at the government's discretion.
