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 3917). On March 30, 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 March 30, 2000 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2000. The committee held work sessions on April 12, 2000 and April 19, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 12–5. On May 4, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 233–113. On May 11, 2000 the Senate adopted “Sen. McCarley Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 18, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 26, 2000, making it Chapter 190 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2001.
