Lawmakers pass bills for payday loan database, animal-tested cosmetics ban, school vaccine reporting

Bills to increase pricing transparency for asthma drugs, creating a payday loan database and requiring more information sharing on student vaccinations were approved by state lawmakers amid Tuesday’s looming deadline to pass measures out of their first house of origin.

In total, members of the Senate and Assembly approved 38 bills on Thursday, which included measures banning sale of cosmetics testing on animals and requesting Congress to not ask a question on citizenship on the 2020 Census.

But lawmakers still have hundreds of bills to get through before their Tuesday deadline and will likely hold marathon floor sessions next week.

Here’s a look at what passed on Thursday:

SB201: Payday lending database

SB262: Asthma drug pricing transparency

SB482: Affordable Care Act innovation waiver

AJR6: Urging Congress to exclude a citizenship question from the 2020 Census

SB197: Banning the sale of cosmetics tested on animals

AB123: Vaccination bill
