The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3119). 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 Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2000. The committee held work sessions on April 4, 2000 and April 5, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 13–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 20, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes. On April 27, 2000 the Senate adopted “Sen. Cohen concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 11, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 23, 2000, making it Chapter 163 of the session laws. It took effect on July 22, 2000.
