The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held work sessions on March 2, 2021 and March 3, 2021. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on September 7, 2021 and September 28, 2021. The committee voted unanimously, 24–0, to recommend that the House study it after the session ends, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. 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 September 20, 2022. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “Recommended for Future Legislation”, by a vote of 16 to 0.
