The Story

It was introduced on January 19, 2023 and referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2023. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-0809s). The committee's amendment (2023-0809s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 16, 2023, changing the text of the bill. On March 16, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 16, 2023 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 30, 2023. The committee met in executive session on April 11, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 15–5. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 4, 2023 the House adopted “Lay SB155 on Table” on a division vote 252–120, on a motion by Rep. Matthew Wilhelm. The bill died on the table when the session ended on October 26, 2023, having been set aside and never taken back up.
