The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the Senate Education and Workforce Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 29, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 14, 2019 the Senate adopted “Rerefer” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Kahn. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On January 8, 2020 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Feltes. 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.
