The Story

It was introduced on January 28, 1999 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 1999. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 8, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 6, 1999. The committee held a work session on May 19, 1999. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 15–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On June 22, 1999 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on July 1, 1999 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor vetoed it on July 6, 1999. The legislature can override a veto with a two-thirds vote in both chambers.
