The Story

It was introduced on January 28, 1999 and referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 10, 1999. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 1, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on April 1, 1999 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 27, 1999. The committee held work sessions on May 4, 1999 and May 5, 1999. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 16–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 20, 1999 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on May 27, 1999 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 3, 1999, making it Chapter 101 of the session laws. It took effect on August 2, 1999.
