The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2012. The committee voted 10–3 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 15, 2012 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 7, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 29, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-1516s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (1516s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 11, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On April 11, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 15, 2012 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate AM #1516s (Rep C.McGuire)” on a voice vote.
