The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a work session on March 7, 2022. The committee met in executive session on March 7, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2022-0843h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 11–8. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 16, 2022 the House failed “Lay HB1171 on Table” on a roll call 156–190, on a motion by Rep. Grote. The committee's amendment (2022-0843h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 16, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On March 16, 2022 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 201–147. It crossed to the Senate on March 17, 2022 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 30, 2022. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate study it after the session ends, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 28, 2022 the Senate adopted “Refer to Interim Study” on a voice vote.
