The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 22, 2013. The committee met in executive session on January 23, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0019h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0019h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 30, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On January 30, 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 Health, Education and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 19, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 28, 2013 the Senate adopted “Special Order HB 232 to Next Calendar, Without Objection”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. A floor amendment (2013-1305s), offered by Sen. Gilmour, was adopted on a voice vote on April 18, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On April 18, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 8, 2013 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1305s (Rep J.MacKay)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 19, 2013, making it Chapter 84 of the session laws.
