The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 1, 2023. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 9, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-1037s). The committee's amendment (2023-1037s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 23, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On March 23, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it with changes and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 23, 2023 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 26, 2023. The committee held a work session on May 10, 2023. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2023-1728h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee met in executive session on May 24, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The committee's amendment (2023-1728h) was adopted on a voice vote on June 8, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On June 8, 2023 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 15, 2023 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Howard Pearl. 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 211 of the session laws. It took effect on August 4, 2023.
