The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2008 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 15, 2008. The committee held work sessions on January 22, 2008, January 30, 2008, February 5, 2008, February 7, 2008 and February 14, 2008. The committee met in executive session on February 19, 2008 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 22–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0606h). The committee's amendment (0606h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 5, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On March 5, 2008 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 13, 2008 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2008. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1202) was adopted on a voice vote on April 17, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On April 17, 2008 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On April 30, 2008 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment #1202 (Rep M.Smith)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 21, 2008 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1799) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 11, 2008, making it Chapter 177 of the session laws.
