The Story

It was introduced on February 15, 2001 and referred to the House Children and Family Law committee. On March 8, 2001 the House adopted “Susp Rules for deadline” on a voice vote. The committee held a public hearing on March 21, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 15–0. On April 5, 2001 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on May 1, 2001 and was referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held public hearings on May 22, 2001 and May 29, 2001. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1415). On June 5, 2001 the Senate adopted “Sen. Francoeur Special Order to”. On June 7, 2001 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote 19–2 and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on June 26, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1837) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 16, 2001, making it Chapter 286 of the session laws. It took effect on September 14, 2001.
