The full story
Chair recognized the bill and asked Senator Hill to summarize SB 22-31, which would make procuring prostitution a first-degree felony in some circumstances and authorize impoundment of a vehicle. Senator Hill moved to add a reverse-repealer so the committee could continue working on language while keeping the bill moving toward the floor: "So I would move that we add a reverse repealer to this bill to keep it moving, And that way, we can work together to get the proper amendments before we bring it to the floor." (Senator Hill).
