The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 3, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it 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 Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 23, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes. On March 30, 2000 the Senate adopted “Sen. Squires Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on April 6, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on April 17, 2000, making it Chapter 67 of the session laws. It took effect on April 17, 2000.
