The Story

It was introduced on February 20, 2025 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 12, 2025, with 751 people signed in online: 47 in support, 674 in opposition and 30 as neutral. The committee met in executive session on March 31, 2025 and April 3, 2025. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2025-1488h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 14–11. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2025-1488h) was adopted on a roll call 200–175 on April 10, 2025, changing the text of the bill. On April 10, 2025 the House took up 15 floor amendments.
