The Story

It was introduced on February 14, 2002 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 6, 2002. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2960). On March 14, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 21, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 21, 2002 and was referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2002. The committee held a work session on April 9, 2002. 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 17, 2002 the House voted to pass it with changes. On April 25, 2002 the Senate adopted “Sen. Prescott Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 2, 2002 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 15, 2002, making it Chapter 167 of the session laws. It took effect on May 15, 2002.
