The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 8, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 16, 2000 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 April 12, 2000. The committee held a work session on May 9, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 18–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 17, 2000 the House voted to pass it.
