Summary: The Senate Health Policy Committee heard and advanced several health-related bills focused largely on drowning prevention, surgical smoke, human trafficking training, and chiropractic patient funds. SB 428 would expand Florida’s swim lesson voucher program from children ages 0-4 to ages 1-7; the sponsor and supporters from Nemours and the YMCA emphasized Florida’s high child drowning rates and argued that swim lessons reduce risk and should be more widely accessible. Senator Harrell noted the need to revisit funding levels as eligibility expands. The bill was reported favorably. The committee also considered SB 606, which adds drowning prevention and safe bathing education to postpartum education provided by hospitals, birthing centers, and home birth providers. A mother who lost her daughter to drowning testified in support, describing the bill as an early opportunity to educate parents. An amendment removed home birth providers from the compliance-proof requirement, and the bill was adopted as amended and reported favorably as a committee substitute. SB 162 would require hospitals and ambulatory surgical centers to adopt policies for using smoke evacuation systems during procedures that generate surgical smoke. The sponsor said the equipment is relatively inexpensive and already used in many facilities, while several senators raised concerns about the lack of supporting data, possible burdens on rural and smaller facilities, and whether the mandate should be narrower. Despite those concerns, the bill was reported favorably, with the sponsor saying more data would be provided later. The committee also approved SB 340, requiring a two-hour human trafficking course for nursing students before licensure, after amending it to make the requirement apply to students rather than nursing programs. Finally, SB 192, presented by Senator Trumbull for Senator Martin, removed the $1,500 cap on advances chiropractic physicians may collect for examinations or treatment; the Florida Chiropractic Society supported the change, and the bill passed unanimously. The committee also received an OPAGA presentation reviewing Florida’s health care practitioner regulation system and comparing board oversight, rulemaking, funding, appointments, and term-limit models in other states.

Summary: The Transportation Committee heard and advanced several bills. CS/SB 1274 (transportation) was amended to remove multiple unrelated provisions and instead address local residential speed limits, license plate frame rules, rural airport funding, yellow-light timing at red-light camera intersections, private use of license plate readers, and FDOT payment rules; it passed unanimously. CS/SB 1310 (railroad safety) was amended into a study bill directing FDOT to examine advanced detection and monitoring systems at public railroad crossings and report policy options; it also passed unanimously after testimony from rail interests supporting a study but cautioning about interoperability and safety concerns. CS/SB 828 (sovereign immunity for public transit contractors) would extend sovereign immunity protections to private contractors providing public transit services for state and local governments. Supporters argued it would reduce costs, improve predictability, and help rural paratransit access, while opponents warned it would be a broad expansion of sovereign immunity and could conflict with railroad employee protections under FELA. Despite opposition from some members and outside groups, the bill was reported favorably. SB 1378 (traffic enforcement) passed and would strengthen abandoned-vehicle removal, penalties for unlawful plates or stickers, and vehicle seizure authority for fleeing/eluding cases. The committee also confirmed a slate of appointees in one vote, then heard SB 1562 (motor vehicle dealers), which would limit manufacturers from concentrating sales with a single dealer group once a brand has a meaningful Florida presence and require broader dealer representation to promote competition. It received supportive testimony and was reported favorably. At the end of the meeting, members recorded additional votes on earlier bills, and the committee adjourned, with the chair noting it was likely the final meeting of the year.
