Some of the bills passed and sent to the House include: House Bill 2360 which would insure that tobacco products are not sold in any packaging other than the original; House Bill 2504 would establish the Silver Alert Plan, which is an alert system for missing cognitively impaired persons; and House Bill 2694 would establish certain requirements for modification of custodial rights for parent’s or guardian’s that have been deployed to the United States Armed Forces.
