The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2013. The committee met in executive session on February 5, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0060h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0060h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 13, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On February 13, 2013 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 14, 2013 and was referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 27, 2013. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on April 18, 2013. On April 18, 2013 the Senate adopted “Without Objection, HB 187 is Special Ordered to the Next Session Day, 2/3 necessary”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 2, 2013 the Senate adopted “Without Objection, HB 187 is Special Ordered to the Next Session Day, 2/3 necessary”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 23, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on June 13, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 24, 2013, making it Chapter 244 of the session laws.
