The Story
It was introduced on January 23, 1997 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 12, 1997. The committee voted unanimously, 8–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes. On February 20, 1997 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 20, 1997. The committee held a work session on April 3, 1997. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 13–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 23, 1997 the House voted to pass it with changes. On May 6, 1997 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 29, 1997 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 9, 1997, making it Chapter 167 of the session laws.
