MANCHESTER, N.H. —Porch pirates continue to strike in New Hampshire and across the country, and U.S. Rep. Chris Pappas, D-New Hampshire, is calling for increased penalties for package thieves.
Pappas said the issue is about more than Christmas presents getting stolen from doorsteps. He said the thefts can have a negative impact on small businesses, and people can be hurt when their medications are stolen.
As Granite Staters eagerly await the delivery of gifts for friends and loved ones at the peak of holiday shopping season, Congressman Chris Pappas (NH-01) is pushing Congress to pass the Porch Pirates Act of 2024 which would increase penalties for package theft and safeguard millions of dollars that New Hampshire residents lose each year to so-called “porch pirates.”
The bipartisan Destruction Initiative for Stored Precursors Overseas and Safe Enforcement (DISPOSE) Act, championed by Congressman Chris Pappas (NH-01), was included in the National Defense Authorization Act for fiscal year 2025 that the House passed this week. This bipartisan legislation would create fentanyl and precursor chemical destruction facilities in three critical drug trafficking choke points: Mexico, Colombia, and Peru.
