The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2024 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2024. The committee met in executive session on January 30, 2024 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 10–9 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 8, 2024 the House voted to pass it on a division vote 198–177. It crossed to the Senate on February 15, 2024 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 19, 2024. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 2, 2024 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 30, 2024 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor.
