The committee held a work session on January 29, 2019. The committee met in executive session on January 29, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on February 12, 2019. The committee met in executive session on February 12, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-0459h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-0459h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2019, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2019-0680h), offered by Rep. Lucy Weber, was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2019 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 14, 2019 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2019. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2019-1518s). The committee's amendment (2019-1518s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 25, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On April 25, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 6, 2019 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate Amendment 1518s and Requests CofC” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Lucy Weber. On June 6, 2019 the Senate adopted “Accedes to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Cavanaugh.
