The Story
It was introduced on May 29, 1991 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on June 5, 1991. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 12–5. A floor amendment (), offered by REP JACOBSON, was rejected on a roll call 83–267 on June 12, 1991. On June 12, 1991 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 26, 1991 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 14–8. On June 27, 1991 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 27, 1991 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 2, 1991, making it Chapter 353 of the session laws. It took effect on July 2, 1991.
