The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House State-Federal Relations and Veterans Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 24, 2013. The committee met in executive session on January 31, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 12–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 13, 2013 the House adopted “Special Order to Beginning of Regular Calendar (Rep Theberge)”. On February 13, 2013 the House voted to pass it 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 May 8, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2013-1964s). The committee's amendment (1964s) was adopted on a voice vote on June 6, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On June 6, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 12, 2013 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs with Senate AM #1964s and Requests a C of C (Rep Shurtleff)” on a voice vote. On June 12, 2013 the Senate adopted “Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Boutin. A committee of conference met on June 18, 2013 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. The Senate adopted the conference report (2111c) on a voice vote. The House adopted the conference report (2111c) on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 26, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 24, 2013, making it Chapter 245 of the session laws.
