The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2026 and referred to the House Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 3, 2026, with 11 people signed in online: 6 in support, 3 in opposition and 2 as neutral. The committee met in executive session on February 10, 2026 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2026-0599h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 9–6. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2026-0599h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 5, 2026, changing the text of the bill. On March 5, 2026 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 185–152. It crossed to the Senate on March 5, 2026 and was referred to the Senate Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 19, 2026. The committee voted unanimously, 3–0, to recommend that the Senate study it after the session ends, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 9, 2026 the Senate adopted “Refer to Interim Study” on a voice vote.
