The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 15, 2023. The committee held a work session on February 24, 2023. The committee met in executive session on March 8, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on March 10, 2023. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee met in executive session on November 8, 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. A floor amendment (2023-2406h) was rejected on a roll call 181–192 on January 3, 2024. On January 3, 2024 the House voted to kill it and bar the subject for the rest of the term on a roll call 201–174, on a motion by Rep. Stephen Pearson.
