The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration 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 August 24, 2021. The committee met in executive session on October 25, 2021 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2021-2097h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 15–3. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2021-2097h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 6, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On January 6, 2022 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 9, 2022. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1049s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2022-1049s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 17, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On March 17, 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. McGuire. 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 June 24, 2022, making it Chapter 246 of the session laws.
