The Story
It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2007. The committee met in executive session on February 13, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 15–2 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 21, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 22, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Transportation and Interstate Cooperation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On April 18, 2007 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Foster. On April 18, 2007 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Foster. The committee's amendment (1251) was adopted on a voice vote on April 18, 2007, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (1284), offered by Sen. Burling, was adopted on a voice vote on April 18, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On April 18, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 16, 2007 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendments #1251 & #1284, Rep Ryan” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 31, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 12, 2007, making it Chapter 77 of the session laws.
