The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. A floor amendment (2021-0429s), offered by Sen. Sherman, was adopted on a roll call 24–0 on February 18, 2021, changing the text of the bill. On February 18, 2021 the Senate voted to pass it with changes and ordered it to a third reading.
