The Story

It was introduced on February 10, 2000 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 10, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 16, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 12, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 12–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 4, 2000 the House voted to pass it. 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 171 of the session laws. It took effect on July 22, 2000.
