AI Summary

This bill establishes a committee to investigate the federal government's handling of the 1967 attack on the USS Liberty, a U.S. Navy technical research ship (identified by its hull number AGTR-5). The committee will consist of four members of the state House of Representatives, one member of the state Senate, and one member of the public, all appointed by legislative leaders and the governor, respectively. These members will be reimbursed for travel expenses at the legislative rate. The committee's primary duty is to examine whether the U.S. government accurately determined the responsibility of Israeli civilian and military officials for the attack. A chairperson will be elected by the committee members, and a quorum will be three members. The committee must hold its first meeting within 45 days of the bill's passage and submit its findings and any recommendations to New Hampshire's federal congressional delegation by November 1, 2025.
