The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2019. The committee met in executive session on February 13, 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 August 29, 2019 and September 12, 2019. The committee met in executive session on October 31, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 8, 2020 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
