The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 1999 and referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 2, 1999. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 19–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 4, 1999 the House voted to pass it. It crossed to the Senate on March 23, 1999 and was referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 27, 1999. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 29, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 6, 1999 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 21, 1999, making it Chapter 42 of the session laws. It took effect on May 21, 1999. The committee held work sessions on February 14, 2000 and February 21, 2000.
