The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held a work session on October 5, 2021. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House study it after the session ends, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee met in executive session on October 14, 2021 to vote on its recommendation. On January 5, 2022 the House voted to study it after the session ends on a voice vote. The committee held a work session on June 2, 2022. The committee met in executive session on June 2, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “Not Recommended for Future Legislation”, by a vote of 14 to 0.
