The Story

It was introduced on February 12, 2015 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 17, 2015. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2015-0988s). The committee's amendment (0988s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 26, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On March 26, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held public hearings on April 14, 2015 and April 21, 2015. The committee met in executive session on May 19, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 11–9. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On June 3, 2015 the House voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. The bill died on the table when the session ended on November 18, 2015, having been set aside and never taken back up.
