The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2008 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 4, 2008. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0858) was adopted on a voice vote on March 13, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On March 13, 2008 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 19, 2008 and was referred to the House Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 1, 2008. The committee held work sessions on April 10, 2008 and April 17, 2008. The committee met in executive session on April 22, 2008 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1426h). The committee's amendment (1426h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 30, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On April 30, 2008 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 21, 2008 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Foster.
