The Story

It was introduced on February 3, 2011 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 24, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate send it back to committee. On March 9, 2011 the Senate voted to send it back to committee on a voice vote. The committee held work sessions on September 8, 2011 and November 8, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-0201s). The committee's amendment (0201s) was adopted on a voice vote on January 18, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On January 18, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 8, 2012 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 6, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 10–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1108h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (1108h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 15, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On March 15, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 23, 2012 the Senate voted to reject the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sharon Carson.
