Lack of action signals either low priority, unanswered fiscal concerns, or behind-the-scenes political/advocacy opposition—but these bills are not officially dead until the end of the session, and no detailed opposition or fiscal notes have been publicly filed as of now.
-
Not moving this year means nothing passed.
-
Can be revived next year: They can be taken up when the session resumes.
-
Most bills die quietly in committee due to lack of support rather than open floor defeat.
-
Opposition/fiscal analysis rarely published unless scheduled for a floor or committee vote. Detailed opposition and fiscal notes are typically only created once a bill is scheduled for “mark-up” or a fiscal committee hearing, which these bills have not reached.
