The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2004 and referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 10, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 19, 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 pass it. 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 Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 23, 2004. The committee held work sessions on March 25, 2004, March 30, 2004 and April 14, 2004. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 13–8. On May 5, 2004 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 6, 2004 the Senate voted to reject the other chamber's changes, on a motion by Sen. Martel. On May 13, 2004 the House adopted “House Acceded to req for Conf Comm” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on May 17, 2004 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On May 25, 2004 the House adopted “Conf Comm Report” on a voice vote. On May 25, 2004 the Senate adopted “Conference Committee Report” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 25, 2004 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 11, 2004, making it Chapter 218 of the session laws. It took effect on June 11, 2004.
