The Story

It was introduced on February 23, 2023 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 13, 2023. The committee met in executive session on March 27, 2023, March 28, 2023 and March 29, 2023. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2023-1247h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 14–11. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2023-1247h) was adopted on a division vote 351–38 on April 6, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On April 6, 2023 the House took up 6 floor amendments. It adopted 2023-1336h (Reps. Osborne and Wilhelm, 326–63) and 2023-1292h (Rep. Heath, 199–187), and rejected 2023-1290h (Reps.

A floor amendment (2023-1299h), offered by Reps. Heath, Luneau and A. Murray, was adopted on a division vote 241–143 on April 6, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On April 6, 2023 the House took up 8 floor amendments. It adopted 2023-1272h (Reps. Edwards and Moffett), 2023-1295h (Rep. Andrew Prout, 249–136), 2023-1328h (Rep. Doucette) and 2023-1288h (Rep.

A floor amendment (2023-1273h), offered by Rep. Kevin Verville, was rejected on a division vote 160–214 on April 6, 2023. On April 6, 2023 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-2076s). The committee's amendment (2023-2076s) was adopted on a voice vote on June 7, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On June 7, 2023 the Senate took up 17 floor amendments. It adopted 2023-2092s (Sen. Timothy Lang), 2023-2139s (Sen. Bradley), 2023-2140s (Sen. Bradley) and 2023-2171s (Sen. Bradley), and rejected 2023-2086s (Sen. D'Allesandro, 1–23), 2023-2147s (Sen. D'Allesandro), 2023-2144s (Sen. D'Allesandro), 2023-2087s (Sen. D'Allesandro), 2023-2090s (Sen. D'Allesandro, 9–15), 2023-2153s (Sen. Donovan Fenton), 2023-2112s (Sen. Timothy Lang), 2023-2143s (Sen.

Soucy, 10–14). On June 7, 2023 the Senate adopted “Sections Ought to Pass with Amendment 85-88 and effective date, RC 15Y-8N”. On June 7, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it with changes. On June 7, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it with changes and ordered it to a third reading. On June 7, 2023 the Senate adopted “Without Objection, the Clerk is authorized to make technical and administrative corrections which are necessary to reflect the intent of the Senate”. On June 7, 2023 the Senate adopted “Reconsider Ought to Pass vote on Sections 85-88” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Keith Murphy. A floor amendment (2023-2148s), offered by Sen.

On June 8, 2023 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment” on a roll call 326–53, on a motion by Rep. Kenneth Weyler. The bill was enrolled on June 8, 2023 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2023-2179e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 20, 2023, making it Chapter 79 of the session laws.
