The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 24, 2007. The committee held a work session on February 13, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 15, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 14–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0572h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 27, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On March 27, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 12, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Election Law and Internal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 25, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1439) was adopted on a voice vote on May 10, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On May 10, 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 AM {1439}, Rep Clemons” 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 64 of the session laws.
