The Story
It was introduced on January 9, 2025 and referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 12, 2025, with 36 people signed in online: 28 in support and 8 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on March 10, 2025 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 14–4. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 26, 2025 the House adopted “Lay HB614 on Table” on a division vote 177–167, on a motion by Rep. Bob Lynn. On March 27, 2025 the House failed “Remove from Table” on a roll call 76–287, on a motion by Rep. Donald McFarlane. The bill died on the table when the session ended on December 17, 2025, having been set aside and never taken back up.
