The Story
It was introduced on January 8, 2025 and referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2025, with 27 people signed in online: 20 in support and 7 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on March 7, 2025 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2025-0130h), by a vote of 9–6. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 26, 2025 the House rejected a motion to kill it on a roll call 143–200. The committee minority's amendment (2025-0130h) was adopted on a division vote 185–157 on March 26, 2025, changing the text of the bill. On March 26, 2025 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. 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 15, 2025. The committee voted 3–2 to recommend that the Senate kill it. On May 1, 2025 the Senate adopted “Special Order to 05/08/2025, Without Objection”. The committee voted 3–2 to recommend that the Senate kill it. On May 8, 2025 the Senate voted to lay it on the table, on a motion by Sen. Daryl Abbas. The bill died on the table under Senate Rule 3-23 on October 31, 2025, having been set aside and never taken back up.
