The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 12, 2022. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-0174s). The committee's amendment (2022-0174s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 3, 2022, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2022-0371s), offered by Sen. Cindy Rosenwald, was adopted on a voice vote on February 3, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On February 3, 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 Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 5, 2022. The committee held work sessions on April 12, 2022 and April 14, 2022. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. A floor amendment (1889h), offered by Rep. Abrami, was adopted on a voice vote on May 5, 2022, changing the text of the bill. On May 5, 2022 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 12, 2022 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Giuda. 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 17, 2022, making it Chapter 217 of the session laws. It took effect on August 16, 2022.
