ACTION NARRATIVE
5:18:54 PM
CHAIR VANCE called the House Judiciary Standing Committee
meeting to order at 5:18 p.m. Representatives Carpenter,
Sumner, Gray, Allard, and Vance were present at the call to
order. Representative Groh arrived as the meeting was in
progress.
HB 358-PROHIBIT AI-ALTERED REPRESENTATIONS
5:19:38 PM
CHAIR VANCE announced that the first order of business would be
CS FOR HOUSE BILL NO. 358(JUD), "An Act relating to use of
artificial intelligence to create or alter a representation of
the voice or likeness of an individual."
5:19:50 PM
REPRESENTATIVE ALLARD moved to adopt Amendment 1 to CSHB
358(JUD), labeled 33-LS1272\R.1, Walsh, 5/1/24, which read:
Page 1, lines 1 - 3:
Delete "relating to generated obscene child
sexual abuse material; relating to child pornography;"
Page 1, line 9, through page 8, line 7:
Delete all material.
Renumber the following bill sections accordingly.
Page 10, line 21, through page 12, line 10:
Delete all material.
REPRESENTATIVE CARPENTER objected.
CHAIR VANCE explained that Amendment 1 would remove all language
related to obscene child sexual abuse material from the bill.
REPRESENTATIVE CARPENTER removed his objection. There being no
further objection, Amendment 1 was adopted.
5:20:45 PM
REPRESENTATIVE ALLARD moved to report CSHB 358(JUD), as amended,
out of committee with individual recommendations and the
accompanying fiscal notes. There being no objection, CSHB
358(2d JUD), was reported from the House Judiciary Standing
Committee.
HB 107-CRIMINAL LAW DEFINITIONS PERSON/LIFE
5:21:17 PM
CHAIR VANCE announced that the final order of business would be
HOUSE BILL NO. 107, "An Act relating to criminal law
definitions." [Before the committee, adopted as the working
document on 3/20/24, was the proposed committee substitute (CS)
for HB 107, Version 33-LS0482\U, C. Radford, 3/19/24, ("Version
U").]
5:21:32 PM
REPRESENTATIVE SUMNER said he would not be offering Amendment 1
or Amendment 2.
REPRESENTATIVE GRAY asked whether the fiscal note for HB 107
would be applicable to Version U.
5:22:11 PM
The committee took a brief at-ease at 5:22 p.m.
5:22:28 PM
REPRESENTATIVE GRAY asked why the fiscal note for HB 107 is
indeterminate.
CHAIR VANCE clarified that a new fiscal note would be generated
with the adoption of Version U. She said based on conversations
with the Department of Law (DOL), the fiscal note is likely
indeterminate because the impacts of the legislation are not
fully understood.
REPRESENTATIVE GRAY posited that the impacts of the legislation
should be fully understood before moving it.
CHAIR VANCE stated that with regard to criminal law, the impact
can often be anticipated based on past history. She reiterated
that the committee had not received any further clarification
from DOL.
REPRESENTATIVE ALLARD said she understood the impact of the
bill.
5:23:45 PM
REPRESENTATIVE ALLARD moved to report CSHB 107, Version 33-
LS0482\U, C. Radford, 3/19/24, out of committee with individual
recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes.
REPRESENTATIVE GRAY objected.
5:24:39 PM
A roll call vote was taken. Representatives Sumner, Allard,
Carpenter, and Vance voted in favor of reporting CSHB 107,
Version U, from committee. Representatives Gray and Groh voted
against it. Therefore, CSHB 107(JUD) was reported out of the
House Judiciary Standing Committee by a vote of 4-2.
5:25:40 PM
ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business before the committee, the House
Judiciary Standing Committee meeting was adjourned at 5:25 p.m.
