Legislation that would continue liability protections from COVID-related claims and lawsuits filed against health care providers passed on the House floor Thursday with a 87-31 vote. The Legislature passed the protective measure last year but the law has an expiration date that only grants immunity through March 2022. The full Senate already passed SB 7014 by a 22-13 vote late last month. The measure extends liability protections until June 1, 2023 following the governor's approval.
