The bill was taken off the consent calendar on February 5, 2026. The committee's amendment (2026-0350s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 5, 2026, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2026-0487s), offered by Sen. Denise Ricciardi, was adopted on a voice vote on February 5, 2026, changing the text of the bill. On February 5, 2026 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee voted unanimously, 7–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it. On March 12, 2026 the Senate adopted the motion that it ought to pass on a voice vote, but its third reading was left pending. On March 12, 2026 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. James Gray.
