The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2010 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 7, 2010. The committee held work sessions on January 28, 2010 and February 2, 2010. The committee met in executive session on February 9, 2010 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0381h). The committee's amendment (0381h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 17, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On February 17, 2010 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 3, 2010 and was referred to the Senate Commerce, Labor and Consumer Protection committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 27, 2010. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1773s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 5, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On May 5, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading.
