The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3140). On February 3, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 10, 2000 and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 7, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 13, 2000 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on April 13, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (4150) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on April 27, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 8, 2000, making it Chapter 122 of the session laws. It took effect on July 7, 2000.
