The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Public Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 19, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3152). 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 Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 7, 2000. The committee held work sessions on March 16, 2000 and March 29, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 15–0, 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. Trombly 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 167 of the session laws. It took effect on January 1, 2001.
