The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2023 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2023. The committee met in executive session on February 9, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2023-0029h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 11–9. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2023-0029h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 23, 2023, changing the text of the bill.
