The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 10, 2018. The committee held work sessions on January 18, 2018, January 23, 2018 and February 20, 2018. The committee met in executive session on February 21, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The minority of the committee recommended that the House pass it. The majority of the committee recommended that the House kill it by a vote of 14–10, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 7, 2018 the House rejected a motion to kill it on a roll call 157–163. On March 7, 2018 the House failed “Lay HB 1756 on Table” on a roll call 149–173, on a motion by Rep. Kurk. On March 7, 2018 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On March 7, 2018 the House failed “Reconsider HB 1756” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. White. It crossed to the Senate on March 8, 2018 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 3, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On April 26, 2018 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it. On April 26, 2018 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. On April 26, 2018 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. A floor amendment (2018-1814s), offered by Sen. Sharon Carson, was adopted on a voice vote on April 26, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On April 26, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 10, 2018 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 1814s” on a roll call 248–84, on a motion by Rep. Kurk. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2018-2082e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 25, 2018, making it Chapter 304 of the session laws.
