The Story

It was introduced on January 7, 2004 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 14, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0347). The committee's amendment (0347) was adopted on a voice vote on February 12, 2004, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (0440), offered by Sen. D'Allesandro, was rejected on a voice vote on February 12, 2004. On February 12, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On February 12, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 24, 2004. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 15, 2004 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on April 22, 2004 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 3, 2004, making it Chapter 64 of the session laws. It took effect on July 2, 2004.
