The committee met in executive session on March 6, 2019 and March 13, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-1038h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-1038h) 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.
