The only date set in stone for when the new slot must be implemented for each state is "by July 2, 2023." Other than that, it's at each state's discretion. Maryland (5/16), Maine (5/18) and Connecticut (5/26) each already set their dates. Of those three, only Maine had any sort of public hearing/meeting on the subject so MA might not even do so. New Jersey had a public hearing last week and decided to hold off and reconvene some time in June for final action.

There are public virtual hearings being held 5/17, 5/22, 5/23 and 5/31 which are not state-specific.
