The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 2022. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2022-0317s). The committee's amendment (2022-0317s) 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 Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 5, 2022. The committee met in executive session on April 5, 2022 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 17–4 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2022-1386h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1386h) 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 roll call 226–76. On May 12, 2022 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. 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 233 of the session laws. It took effect on June 17, 2022.
