The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2004 and referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 14, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 12, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On March 11, 2004 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it on a voice vote. On March 11, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On March 11, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on March 11, 2004 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 23, 2004. The committee held work sessions on March 30, 2004, April 6, 2004 and April 7, 2004. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 11–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 15, 2004 the House voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the House Finance committee. The committee held work sessions on April 20, 2004 and April 27, 2004. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 15–7. On May 5, 2004 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 6, 2004 the Senate adopted “Sen.O'Hearn Moved to Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. 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 May 24, 2004, making it Chapter 147 of the session laws. It took effect on August 1, 2004.
