The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2019-0092s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-0092s) was adopted on a voice vote on January 31, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On January 31, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 20, 2019 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2019. The committee met in executive session on April 10, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-1405h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-1405h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2019 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 30, 2019 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sharon Carson.
