The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2023 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 10, 2023. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On January 19, 2023 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 16, 2023 and was referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 18, 2023. The committee met in executive session on May 16, 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 met in executive session on October 31, 2023 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on October 31, 2023. The committee voted 16–2 to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 3, 2024 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
