Right now we wait. We will keep you posted.
Just found this thread. Thank you for your help, knife.
I can see no companion bill in the Senate. Is that the case? So this bill has a ways to go...

This bill is on the same path that HB 3884 was on last session. 3884 got all the way to the Senate L&C calendar before becoming a victim of dirty politics. Oh, wait, is there any other kind? 
My hope is that since this bill is similar to 3884, once movement on bills begins, this one will move quickly.
Companion bills generally are only utilized on very high-profile, politically sensitive bills, which this one is not. In fact, the less high-profile it is, the better, IMO. Let's hope it just skitters through the process with no red flags getting attached.

We have had a good development today. HB1935 added 2 Joint Authors and one Co-Author:
Rep Moody (D) Chair of House Crim Jur,
Rep Springer (R) Vice Chair of County Affairs both came on as Joint Authors today.
And Rep Canales (D) came on as a Co-Sponsor
So now we have as Joint Authors: Frullo (R) | Dutton (D) | Kuempel (R) | Moody (D) | Springer (R) as Joint Authors (4 chairmen and 1 vice chairman). This is a strong bi-partisan coalition to have.

Sit tight, we are working on the senate side.
Haha. Keep it away from Whitmire and the Senate should be a breeze. ;^>
Thank you, again, for all the work.
