The Story
It was introduced on January 9, 2025 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The House withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee instead. The committee held a public hearing on February 19, 2025, with 401 people signed in online: 383 in support and 18 in opposition. The committee held a work session on March 4, 2025. The committee met in executive session on March 5, 2025 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 13, 2025 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
