The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2004 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 28, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 5, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On February 5, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on February 5, 2004 and was referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 2, 2004. The committee held a work session on March 30, 2004. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House pass it with changes, by a vote of 15–4. The committee's amendment (1177) was rejected on a roll call 158–182 on April 22, 2004. The committee minority's amendment (1208) was adopted on a voice vote on April 22, 2004, changing the text of the bill. On April 22, 2004 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the House Finance committee. 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 May 5, 2004 the House voted to pass it. On May 6, 2004 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. D'Allesandro. The bill was enrolled on May 13, 2004 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 7, 2004, making it Chapter 195 of the session laws. It took effect on July 1, 2004.
