The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2017 and referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 14, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0555s). The committee's amendment (2017-0555s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 9, 2017, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2017-0808s), offered by Sen. Daniel Innis, was adopted on a voice vote on March 9, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On March 9, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On March 23, 2017 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. 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.
