The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the House State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 21, 2022. The committee met in executive session on January 21, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 21–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 16, 2022 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 24, 2022 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2022. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1368s). On April 14, 2022 the Senate adopted “Special Order to Next Session, Without Objection”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1368s). The committee's amendment (2022-1368s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 21, 2022, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2022-1690s), offered by Sen. Suzanne Prentiss, was adopted on a voice vote on April 21, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On April 21, 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. Michael Moffett. The bill was enrolled on May 26, 2022 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2022-2112e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. An enrolled bill amendment (2022-2112E) was considered. These correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 1, 2022, making it Chapter 310 of the session laws.
