The Story

It was introduced on February 10, 2010 and referred to the Senate Commerce, Labor and Consumer Protection committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2010. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0819s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 3, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On March 3, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 17, 2010 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 18, 2010 and was referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 30, 2010. The committee held a work session on April 6, 2010. The committee met in executive session on April 13, 2010 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 11–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1330h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1330h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 21, 2010, changing the text of the bill. On April 21, 2010 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On April 21, 2010 the bill was referred to the Ways and Means committee. The committee held a work session on April 27, 2010. The committee met in executive session on April 28, 2010 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 16–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 5, 2010 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On May 5, 2010 the Senate adopted “Sen. Hassan Concurs with House Amendment 1330h” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 5, 2010 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1931) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on May 11, 2010.
