It was introduced on January 4, 2017 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2017. The committee met in executive session on January 25, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0100h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2017-0100h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 9, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On February 9, 2017 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
