This bill died with 2017-2018 Regular Session. It reached “To Executive” and never advanced before the session ended, so it can no longer move — a new version would have to be reintroduced in the current session.
This bill is no longer active — its legislative session has ended, so there are no live odds of enactment. It would have to be reintroduced in the current session to move again.

What changed in the latest version
9 added · 14 removedPlain-language change summary
The recent amendments to Bill HB 59 have made some notable changes. The revised version removes provisions related to the process by which appeals can be made regarding adoption assistance, specifically clarifying who can appeal on behalf of a child. This simplification is important because it streamlines the appeal process for adoptive families, making it easier for them to receive support when needed. Additionally, it suggests a focus on ensuring that the appeals are handled more efficiently, which can benefit families navigating adoption.
