The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 1995 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 1995. The committee held a work session on February 28, 1995. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 24–1. On March 15, 1995 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 21, 1995 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 2, 1995. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 16, 1995 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 1995 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on June 2, 1995, as Chapter 172. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
