The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2005 and referred to the Senate Environment and Wildlife committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 1, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0141). The committee's amendment (0141) was adopted on a voice vote on February 10, 2005, changing the text of the bill. On February 10, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On February 10, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on February 15, 2005 and was referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 15, 2005. The committee held a work session on May 5, 2005. The committee voted 15–2 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 25, 2005 the House voted to pass it, then referred it on to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 31, 2005. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 11–5. On June 8, 2005 the House voted to pass it on a division vote 172–109. The bill was enrolled on June 15, 2005 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 30, 2005, making it Chapter 194 of the session laws. It took effect on July 1, 2005.
