The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2018. The committee held work sessions on January 23, 2018 and January 30, 2018. The committee met in executive session on February 20, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2018-0405h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2018-0405h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 6, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On March 6, 2018 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 8, 2018 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 3, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1481s). The committee's amendment (2018-1481s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 19, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On April 19, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On April 26, 2018 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 1481s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. John Hunt.
