The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2019. The committee held a work session on February 26, 2019. The committee met in executive session on March 5, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on June 11, 2019, August 27, 2019, September 17, 2019, October 3, 2019 and October 15, 2019. The committee met in executive session on October 29, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-2766h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 16–3. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-2766h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 8, 2020, changing the text of the bill. On January 8, 2020 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 11, 2020 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. On June 16, 2020 the Senate adopted “Vacated from Committee and Laid on Table” on a voice vote. The bill died on the table under Senate Rule 3-23 at adjournment on September 16, 2020, having been set aside and never taken back up.
