The Story

It was introduced on January 30, 2003 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 12, 2003. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 15–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 12, 2003 the House voted to pass it. It crossed to the Senate on March 13, 2003 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 24, 2003. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 8, 2003 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. On May 29, 2003 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote. On May 29, 2003 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 29, 2003 the Senate voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on June 5, 2003 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on June 18, 2003, as Chapter 170. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
