The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 8, 2023. The committee met in executive session on February 15, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 10–9, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee met in executive session on February 16, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The minority of the committee recommended that the House kill it. On March 9, 2023 the House voted to pass it on a roll call 193–180. On March 9, 2023 the House failed “Reconsider HB467” on a division vote 177–196, on a motion by Rep. Adjutant. It crossed to the Senate on March 9, 2023 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 21, 2023. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-1874s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2023-1874s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 18, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On May 18, 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 failed “House Non-Concurs with Senate Amendment 2023-1874s and Requests CofC” on a roll call 161–199, on a motion by Rep. David Meuse. On June 15, 2023 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 2023-1874s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Len Turcotte. 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 196 of the session laws.
