The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 7, 2023. The committee met in executive session on March 13, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on May 24, 2023, October 27, 2023 and November 8, 2023. The committee met in executive session on November 13, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. 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 January 4, 2024 the House rejected a motion to pass it on a roll call 186–188. On January 4, 2024 the House voted to kill it on a division vote 190–185.
