The Story
It was introduced on February 14, 2008 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 5, 2008. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 13, 2008 the Senate voted to pass it 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 Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 1, 2008. The committee met in executive session on April 3, 2008 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1149h). The committee's amendment (1149h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 16, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On April 16, 2008 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on May 23, 2008 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. The bill was enrolled on June 5, 2008 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 16, 2008, making it Chapter 387 of the session laws.
