It was introduced on January 5, 2017 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held public hearings on February 14, 2017 and February 23, 2017. The committee held a work session on March 1, 2017. The committee met in executive session on March 1, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0648h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2017-0648h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 8, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On March 8, 2017 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
