The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 2024 and referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 9, 2024. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it. It crossed to the House on February 22, 2024 and was referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 11, 2024, with 10 people signed in online: 9 in support and 1 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on March 19, 2024 and May 9, 2024. The committee recommended, on a tied vote of 10–10, which carries no majority, that the House make no recommendation, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 23, 2024 the House failed “Lay CACR22 on Table” on a roll call 175–187, on a motion by Rep. Connie Lane. On May 23, 2024 the House rejected a motion to pass it on a roll call 195–165.
