HB 903 Passed but Retained by House Committee

By David A. McCranie, Esq.

HB 903 has been retained by the House Insurance, Business & Financial Affairs Policy Committee.  According to a representative of the committee that I spoke with this morning, the bill was passed by a vote of 19-2 yesterday, but a motion to retain the bill was heard and approved.  The committee is scheduled to meet again on Thursday, March 12.  If a motion to reconsider the bill is filed and passed at that meeting, the bill will be taken up by the committee anew.  But if a motion to reconsider is not passed, or if such a motion is not filed, the bill will be passed out of committee.  Its next stop would be the House General Government Policy Council.
