The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 9, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 14, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 10–6. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 27, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a division vote 165–112. It crossed to the Senate on April 12, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 2, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 10, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 24, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 12, 2007, making it Chapter 94 of the session laws.
