The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2019. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2019-1042s). The committee's amendment (2019-1042s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 21, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On March 21, 2019 the Senate rejected a motion to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Giuda. On March 21, 2019 the Senate adopted “Special Order to next week, Without Objection”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2019-1042s). The committee's amendment (2019-1042s) was rejected on a voice vote on March 28, 2019. On March 28, 2019 the Senate voted to send it back to committee on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Feltes. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 8, 2020 the Senate voted to kill it on a voice vote.
