Where it stands
House: INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE
Every floor vote on this bill was a voice or division vote, so there is no record of how individual legislators voted.
A bill goes on the consent calendar when the committee vote was unanimous or nearly so, and any members who dissented did not object to placing it there. It then passes without floor debate. Ten members may file a petition to pull a bill off the consent calendar and have it debated and voted on separately.

Committee reports
Reproduced from the House Calendar in the committee’s own words.
Committee — INEXPEDIENT TO LEGISLATE
The majority of the committee believes courts already have the discretion to decide who may claim the children between parents in a manor that is fair and equitable, and tailored to the unique circumstances of each family, rather than imposing a one size fits all mandate based solely on support amounts. Finally, it risks incentivizing financial disputes and increasing litigation between parents instead of promoting cooperation, stability and what is truly in the best interest of the child. Vote 14-0. 4 13 FEBRUARY 2026
