The Story
It was introduced on January 2, 2008 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 29, 2008. The committee met in executive session on February 12, 2008 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it. On March 5, 2008 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 27, 2008 and was referred to the Senate Transportation and Interstate Cooperation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 16, 2008. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1488) was adopted on a voice vote on May 1, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On May 1, 2008 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 14, 2008 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment #1488 (Rep Ryan)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 21, 2008 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 11, 2008, making it Chapter 187 of the session laws.
