The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 19, 2019. The committee met in executive session on February 26, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on March 6, 2019. The committee met in executive session on March 11, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-0731h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-0731h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 19, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On March 19, 2019 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 2019 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 9, 2019. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. A floor amendment (2019-1730s), offered by Sen. Regina Birdsell, was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate send it back to committee. On May 23, 2019 the Senate rejected a motion to send it back to committee on a voice vote. A floor amendment (2019-2246s), offered by Sen. David Watters, was adopted on a voice vote on May 23, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On May 23, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 23, 2019 the Senate adopted “Special Order to to the present time, Without Objection”. On June 13, 2019 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 1730s and 2246s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. George Sykes. The bill was enrolled on June 27, 2019 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2019-2648e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 29, 2019, making it Chapter 291 of the session laws.
