The Story

It was introduced on February 15, 2005 and referred to the House State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 14, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 30, 2005 the House adopted “Susp Rules for late ref to 2nd Comm” on a voice vote. On March 30, 2005 the House voted to pass it, then referred it on to the House Finance committee. On March 30, 2005 the House adopted “Susp Rules for Report & Action Deadlines” on a voice vote. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on September 7, 2005, September 14, 2005, September 21, 2005 and September 29, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 4, 2006 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on January 4, 2006 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 15, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 22, 2006 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 with changes (amendment 1582). The committee's amendment (1582) was adopted on a voice vote on April 6, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On April 6, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On April 6, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it. On May 4, 2006 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 15, 2006 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 22, 2006, making it Chapter 138 of the session laws. It took effect on May 22, 2006.
