The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 13, 2000. The committee held work sessions on January 25, 2000, January 27, 2000 and February 2, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 12–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 24, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 9, 2000 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 20, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 2, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 8, 2000, making it Chapter 133 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2001.
