The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 1998 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 1998. The committee voted unanimously, 8–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes. On March 12, 1998 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the House on March 12, 1998 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 31, 1998. On April 9, 1998 the House adopted “Suspend Rules change rept date to 05/14/1998”, on a motion by Rep. Wheeler & Burling. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 15–0, 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 123 of the session laws.
