One tracked measure became law this week: PS 1208 (Declare November a Awareness and Prevention of Child Sexualization Month).

30 of the 30 measures on the list were not on it on Oct 30; the table below lists what moved. Most of the list is still early-stage: 20 of the 30 measures are introduced or in committee.
