The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2009 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 29, 2009. The committee met in executive session on March 12, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on August 19, 2009 and August 26, 2009. The committee met in executive session on October 28, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2371h). The committee met in executive session on November 12, 2009 to vote on its recommendation. The committee's amendment (2371h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 6, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On January 6, 2010 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 17, 2010 and was referred to the Senate Commerce, Labor and Consumer Protection committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 8, 2010. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 14, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on April 28, 2010 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 7, 2010, making it Chapter 12 of the session laws.
