The Story

It was introduced on February 22, 2001 and referred to the Senate Public Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 27, 2001. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 9, 2001 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 Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 22, 2001. The committee held work sessions on May 22, 2001 and May 29, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on June 7, 2001. On June 7, 2001 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 12, 2001 the Senate adopted “Sen. Roberge Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 26, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 11, 2001, making it Chapter 210 of the session laws. It took effect on July 1, 2001.
