The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 2024 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 13, 2024. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2024-0675s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2024-0675s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 21, 2024, changing the text of the bill. On February 21, 2024 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 22, 2024 and was referred to the House Fish and Game and Marine Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 7, 2024, with 3 people signed in online: 3 in support. The committee met in executive session on May 7, 2024 to vote on its recommendation.
