The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2022. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1010s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2022-1010s) 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. It crossed to the House on March 17, 2022 and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2022. The committee met in executive session on April 18, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 4, 2022 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. 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 7, 2022, making it Chapter 151 of the session laws. It took effect on August 6, 2022.
