The Story

It was introduced on January 19, 2017 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0811s). The committee's amendment (2017-0811s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 16, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On March 16, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 23, 2017 the Senate adopted “Special Order SB 244-FN-A to the Next Session, Without Objection”. On March 29, 2017 the Senate adopted “Special Order SB 244-FN- to 03/30/2017, Without Objection”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 30, 2017 the Senate adopted the motion that it ought to pass, but its third reading was left pending. On March 30, 2017 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sanborn. The bill died on the table under Senate Rule 3-23 at adjournment on June 22, 2017, having been set aside and never taken back up.
