The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 22, 2011. The committee met in executive session on February 24, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 14–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0467h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0467h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 16, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On March 16, 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 Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 31, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2011-1375s). The committee's amendment (1375s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 20, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On April 20, 2011 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 18, 2011 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate AM #1375s and Requests C of C (Rep Ferrante)” on a voice vote. On May 25, 2011 the Senate adopted “Accedes to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. A committee of conference met on June 8, 2011 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. The Senate adopted the conference report (2297c) on a voice vote. The House adopted the conference report (2297c) on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 22, 2011 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 13, 2011, making it Chapter 260 of the session laws.
