New Hampshire CACR16 proposes a constitutional amendment allowing property owners or those with legal rights to sleep on their property.
New Hampshire CACR16 proposes adding a new article to the state constitution, ensuring that individuals who own real property or have a legal right to be present on real property can sleep, rest, or occupy the property for temporary repose. The amendment prohibits laws or ordinances from restricting this activity solely based on sleeping purposes, provided the occupation is otherwise lawful. If approved by voters in the 2026 election, the amendment would become effective upon the governor's proclamation.
