The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2009 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 11, 2009. The committee met in executive session on March 5, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it. On March 24, 2009 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 8, 2009 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 21, 2009. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1372s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 29, 2009, changing the text of the bill. On April 29, 2009 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 6, 2009 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment #1372s (Rep Rous)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 13, 2009 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 15, 2009, making it Chapter 105 of the session laws.
