The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 10, 2023. The committee met in executive session on March 8, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The committee recommended that the House make no recommendation. A floor amendment (2023-0839h) was adopted on a division vote 212–158 on March 22, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On March 22, 2023 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 201–181. It crossed to the Senate on March 23, 2023 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 4, 2023. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-1435s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2023-1435s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 11, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On May 11, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 15, 2023 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate Amendment 2023-1435s and Requests CofC” on a division vote 363–12, on a motion by Rep. Rick Ladd. On June 15, 2023 the Senate adopted “Accedes to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Ruth Ward. A committee of conference met on June 19, 2023 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On June 29, 2023 the Senate adopted the conference report (2023-2196c) on a roll call 15–9. On June 29, 2023 the House adopted the conference report (2023-2196c) on a division vote 187–185. The bill was enrolled on June 29, 2023 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on August 4, 2023, making it Chapter 185 of the session laws.
