The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 29, 2013. The committee met in executive session on February 12, 2013 and February 21, 2013. The committee voted 12–4 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0471h). The committee's amendment (0471h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 20, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On March 20, 2013 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 21, 2013 and was referred to the Senate Health, Education and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 23, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2013-1362s). The committee's amendment (1362s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 22, 2013 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1362s (Rep Porter)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 30, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 24, 2013, making it Chapter 103 of the session laws.
