The Story
It was introduced on January 8, 2025 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 5, 2025, with 80 people signed in online: 71 in support and 9 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on March 12, 2025 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2025-0890h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 11–6. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2025-0890h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 26, 2025, changing the text of the bill. On March 26, 2025 the House failed “Lay HB195 on Table” on a division vote 124–215, on a motion by Rep. Paul Berch. On March 26, 2025 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 261–79. It crossed to the Senate on March 27, 2025 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 8, 2025. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 1, 2025 the Senate voted to kill it on a voice vote.
