I am writing a paper on bill HB1314 and I have recently checked the status of the bill. I found out that the bill is dead however it doesn't give the background as to why it failed. So can I please get some type of information as to why the bill was left on the table?

Unfortunately, legislative records never say why anything happened. You'd have to ask Dels. Cox, Landes, Massie, Scott, Greason, Joannou, Hester, or Sickles (or, realistically, their staffs) why the bill was killed, since they were quite possibly the only people in the room when they decided to do so.
