The Story

It was introduced on March 4, 2009 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. On March 11, 2009 the Senate failed “ED&A Committee to ACT on SB 200-FN after the deadline” on a division vote 14–9. On March 11, 2009 the Senate adopted “ED&A Committee to ACT on SB 200-FN after the deadline” on a voice vote. The committee held a public hearing on March 17, 2009. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 25, 2009 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 26, 2009 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 16, 2009. The committee held work sessions on April 22, 2009 and April 29, 2009. The committee met in executive session on April 30, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–5 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1448h). The committee's amendment (1448h) was adopted on a division vote 195–140 on May 6, 2009, changing the text of the bill. On May 6, 2009 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 251–112. On May 6, 2009 the bill was referred to the Finance committee. The committee held work sessions on May 12, 2009 and May 19, 2009. The committee met in executive session on May 28, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 23–0, to recommend that the House pass it. On June 3, 2009 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On June 10, 2009 the Senate adopted “Sen. Cilley Concurs with House Amendment {1448h}” 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 August 7, 2009, making it Chapter 324 of the session laws.
