The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2022.

On February 3, 2022 the Senate voted to pass it 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 Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 12, 2022. The committee met in executive session on April 26, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1710h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (1710h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 4, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On May 4, 2022 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
