The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee met in executive session on February 8, 2021 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 15–3. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 24, 2021 the House adopted “Special Order to first order of business on 2/25/2021” on a division vote 184–158, on a motion by Rep. Dolan. On February 25, 2021 the House voted to lay it on the table on a division vote 175–172, on a motion by Rep. B. Griffin. The bill died on the table when the session ended on January 5, 2022, having been set aside and never taken back up.
