The Story
It was introduced on January 7, 1993 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 2, 1993. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 17–0. On March 18, 1993 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 24, 1993 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 6, 1993. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 11, 1993 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. On May 11, 1993 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 12–11. The bill was enrolled on June 9, 1993 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on June 16, 1993, as Chapter 277. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
