The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 2024 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2024. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1364s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 5, 2024 the Senate adopted “Special Order to the Next Session, Without Objection”. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1364s). The committee's amendment (2024-1364s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 11, 2024, changing the text of the bill. On April 11, 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 April 12, 2024 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 24, 2024, with 5 people signed in online: 5 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on May 8, 2024 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1855h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2024-1855h) was rejected on a division vote 150–215 on May 23, 2024. On May 23, 2024 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 13, 2024 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 3, 2024, making it Chapter 154 of the session laws. It took effect on July 3, 2024.
