The Story

It was introduced on January 31, 2007 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 15, 2007. The committee held work sessions on March 15, 2007 and March 16, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 19, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 14–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0950h) 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 on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 18, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 27, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1390) was adopted on a voice vote on May 24, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On May 24, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 24–0 and ordered it to a third reading. On June 7, 2007 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate AM #1390 NT, Requests Comm of Conf, Rep Irwin” on a voice vote. On June 14, 2007 the Senate adopted “Sen. Burling Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 20, 2007 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. 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 23, 2007, making it Chapter 355 of the session laws.
