The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2009 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 27, 2009. The committee held work sessions on February 3, 2009 and February 5, 2009. The committee met in executive session on February 11, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it (amendment 0220h). The committee's amendment (0220h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 4, 2009, changing the text of the bill. On March 4, 2009 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 18, 2009 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 31, 2009. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1693s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 27, 2009, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (1898s), offered by Sen. Gatsas, was rejected on a roll call 10–14 on May 27, 2009. On May 27, 2009 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 10, 2009 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment #1693s (Rep Rosenwald)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 10, 2009 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 29, 2009, making it Chapter 276 of the session laws.
