CONCORD, N.H. (AP) — New Hampshire lawmakers are considering a measure that would assist homeowners and renters after moratoriums on evictions and foreclosures during the coronavirus pandemic are lifted.

Homeowners unable to make timely mortgage payments during the state of emergency would be able to pay accrued interest and fees as additional monthly payments at the end of their mortgage.

Banking representatives testified Tuesday that the proposal may limit options for borrowers and possibly conflict with federal regulations and assistance.

Also, The Libertarian Party of New Hampshire sued the governor and secretary of state, saying that the required 3,000 signatures needed from registered voters to get candidates on the ballot for the 2020 elections is unreasonable during the pandemic.
