The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2021 and referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 11, 2021 the Senate voted to pass it, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 4, 2021 the Senate voted to pass it and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The House withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Finance committee instead. The committee held a work session on May 10, 2021. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held a work session on September 8, 2021. The committee met in executive session on October 26, 2021 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on October 26, 2021. The committee voted unanimously, 21–0, to recommend that the House kill it. On January 5, 2022 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
