The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 10, 2012. The committee held a work session on January 31, 2012. The committee met in executive session on February 6, 2012 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0425h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 8–4. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0425h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 15, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On February 15, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 197–143. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 19, 2012. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-1756s). The committee's amendment (1756s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 25, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On April 25, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 30, 2012 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1756s (Rep Swinford)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 6, 2012 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 13, 2012, making it Chapter 204 of the session laws.
