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 February 2, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 10, 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 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 by a vote of 13–1, 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 20, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on April 27, 2000, making it Chapter 100 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2001.
