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 January 25, 2023. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2023-0860s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2023-0860s) 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.

The committee met in executive session on April 12, 2023 to vote on its recommendation.
