The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2010 and referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 28, 2010. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0369s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 3, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On February 3, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 3, 2010 and was referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2010. The committee held a work session on February 18, 2010. The committee met in executive session on February 18, 2010 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 18–4 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0807h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0807h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 11, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On March 11, 2010 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On March 24, 2010 the Senate adopted “Sen. D'Allesandro Concurs with House Amendment 0807h” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on March 24, 2010 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1183) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on March 29, 2010, making it Chapter 4 of the session laws.
