The Story

It was introduced on January 9, 2025 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2025, with 100 people signed in online: 95 in support and 5 in opposition. The committee met in executive session on February 18, 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 2025-0419h), by a vote of 11–9. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 6, 2025 the House adopted “Lay HB744 on Table” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Suzanne Chretien. The bill died on the table when the session ended on December 17, 2025, having been set aside and never taken back up.
