The Story
It was introduced on January 18, 2024 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 5, 2024. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1036s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2024-1036s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 21, 2024, changing the text of the bill. On March 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 March 28, 2024 and was referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2024, with 3 people signed in online: 3 in support. The committee met in executive session on April 24, 2024 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2024-1595h), by a vote of 19–1. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 9, 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 175 of the session laws. It took effect on September 1, 2024.
