The Story

It was introduced on March 6, 2007 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held public hearings on March 12, 2007 and March 15, 2007. The committee held work sessions on March 16, 2007, March 19, 2007, March 20, 2007, March 21, 2007, March 23, 2007, March 26, 2007, March 27, 2007, March 28, 2007, March 29, 2007 and March 30, 2007. The committee met in executive session on April 2, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on April 2, 2007. The committee met in executive session on April 3, 2007 and April 5, 2007. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 15–10. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1195h) was adopted on a roll call 210–148 on April 11, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On April 11, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 208–158. It crossed to the Senate on April 12, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (2049) was adopted on a voice vote on June 7, 2007, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2107), offered by Sen. Clegg, was rejected on a roll call 9–15 on June 7, 2007. On June 7, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 16–8 and ordered it to a third reading. On June 13, 2007 the House adopted “House Non Concurs with Senate AM #2049s, Request Comm of Conf, Rep M. Smith” on a voice vote. On June 14, 2007 the Senate adopted “Sen. D’Allesandro Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 18, 2007, June 19, 2007 and June 20, 2007 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On June 27, 2007 the House adopted “Uphold Ruling of Chair (Rep Jasper)” on a roll call 248–108. The bill was enrolled on June 27, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 5, 2007, making it Chapter 262 of the session laws.
