The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Legislative Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 2011. The committee met in executive session on February 1, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 10–5 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 9, 2011 the House adopted “Recommit (Rep Mirski)” on a voice vote. The committee met in executive session on March 1, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 12–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0460h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0460h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 15, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On March 15, 2011 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 27, 2011 and was referred to the Senate Internal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 4, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2011-1759s). The committee's amendment (1759s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 11, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On May 11, 2011 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 25, 2011 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1759s (Rep Mirski)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 8, 2011 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 14, 2011, making it Chapter 163 of the session laws.
