The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2019 and referred to the House Fish and Game and Marine Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 22, 2019. The committee met in executive session on January 29, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 14, 2019 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 7, 2019 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 1, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar.
