The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2020 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2020. The committee met in executive session on February 18, 2020 and March 3, 2020. The minority of the committee recommended that the House kill it. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2020-0953h) by a vote of 15–5, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2020-0953h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 12, 2020, changing the text of the bill. On March 12, 2020 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 178–115. It crossed to the Senate on June 16, 2020 and was referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2020-1581s). The committee's amendment (2020-1581s) was adopted on a voice vote on June 29, 2020, changing the text of the bill. On June 29, 2020 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 30, 2020 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment” on a division vote 222–82, on a motion by Rep. Lucy Weber. The bill was enrolled on July 10, 2020 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 17, 2020, making it Chapter 19 of the session laws.
