Where it stands
House: CONCURRED · Senate: PASSED/ADOPTED WITH AMENDMENT
3 of the floor votes on this bill were voice or division votes, which do not record 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.
