The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2022 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2022. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On February 3, 2022 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it. On February 3, 2022 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sharon Carson. On September 15, 2022 the Senate failed “Remove From Table, RC 10Y-13N”, on a motion by Sen. Soucy. The bill died on the table under Senate Rule 3-23 at adjournment on September 15, 2022, having been set aside and never taken back up.
