Now that the bill has been approved in committee, the full House may consider the legislation. It is possible the bill will move in the House under the rules of “suspension,” which would require a two-thirds vote (rather than simple majority) to advance to the Senate for consideration in that body. It remains unclear whether the bill will ultimately be approved by the full House and/or the Senate. The House is currently out of session and is scheduled to reconvene on January 29, 2024.
