The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The House withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee instead. The committee held a public hearing on February 19, 2015. The committee met in executive session on March 3, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on September 22, 2015 and October 27, 2015. The committee met in executive session on October 27, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee reported: Refer to Interim Study for Jan 6 by a vote of 19–1. On January 6, 2016 the House voted to study it after the session ends on a voice vote. The committee held work sessions on May 31, 2016, June 14, 2016, September 8, 2016, September 20, 2016 and October 11, 2016. The committee met in executive session on October 26, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “Not Recommended for Future Legislation”, by a vote of 12 to 4.
