The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 1998 and referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 3, 1998. The committee voted 6–2 to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes. On April 2, 1998 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. On April 9, 1998 the House adopted “Suspend Rules change rept date to 05/14/1998”, on a motion by Rep. Wheeler & Burling. The committee held a public hearing on April 14, 1998. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 7, 1998 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on May 21, 1998 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 2, 1998, making it Chapter 122 of the session laws. It took effect on June 2, 1998.
