Bill Analysis
HB 1790 would amend code to clarify that a municipality cannot require firefighters or police officers who have an injury not related to the line of duty to use accumulated time or place the employee on a temporary leave if another police officer or firefighter volunteers to do the work of the
injured firefighter or police officer until the employee returns to
duty.
Vote Recommendation Notes
05/18/2015 We remain neutral on HB 1790 in the second chamber. The second chamber sponsor is Senator Lucio.
This bill would make mostly administrative,
clerical, and non-substantive updates to current code with no discernible
connection to our liberty principles, therefore we are neutral on HB 1790.
