The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 6, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 15, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 28, 2007 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 24, 2007. The committee held work sessions on May 1, 2007 and May 3, 2007. The committee met in executive session on May 22, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 14–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 31, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 7, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 20, 2007, making it Chapter 201 of the session laws.
