The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2021-0343h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. It crossed to the Senate on April 1, 2021 and was referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee's amendment (2021-0343h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 7, 2021, changing the text of the bill. On April 7, 2021 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On April 7, 2021 the House failed “Reconsider” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Jason Osborne. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2021-1241s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2021-1241s) was adopted on a roll call 23–0 on May 6, 2021, changing the text of the bill. On May 6, 2021 the Senate voted to pass it with changes and ordered it to a third reading. On June 10, 2021 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 2021-1241s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Pearl. The bill was enrolled on June 24, 2021 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2021-2060e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on August 10, 2021, making it Chapter 188 of the session laws.
