HB 14 passed with a 36-1 vote but still needs to be cleared by the Senate.

Sen. Peter Micciche, R-Soldotna, has a similar bill in the Senate that has advanced to the Senate Finance Committee.

Both bills join a stack of crime bills proposed by state lawmakers and Gov. Mike Dunleavy.

Both chambers are accelerating crime bill hearings hoping to cobble together crime legislation before the session ends May 15.
