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 20, 2010 and February 9, 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 (amendment 0374h). The committee's amendment (0374h) 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 public hearings on April 27, 2010 and May 6, 2010. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1967s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 12, 2010, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2024s), offered by Sen. Hassan, was adopted on a voice vote on May 12, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On May 12, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 19, 2010 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate #AM 1967s(NT) and #2024s (Rep Goley)” on a division vote 193–82. The bill was enrolled on June 2, 2010 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 14, 2010, making it Chapter 145 of the session laws.
