The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2022. The committee met in executive session on February 9, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 21–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2022-0583h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2022-0583h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 10, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On March 10, 2022 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate and was referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 14, 2022. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On May 5, 2022 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it on a voice vote. A floor amendment (2022-1916s), offered by Sen. Daniels, was adopted on a voice vote on May 5, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On May 5, 2022 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 12, 2022 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Robert Harb. The bill was enrolled on May 26, 2022 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 1, 2022, making it Chapter 299 of the session laws.
