The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 14, 2011. The committee held work sessions on February 22, 2011 and March 2, 2011. The committee met in executive session on March 9, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 14–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0604h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0604h) 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 March 23, 2011 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 13, 2011 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee.

An enrolled bill amendment (1899e) was adopted on May 18, 2011. These correct technical errors found after passage.
