The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 12, 2013. The committee met in executive session on February 26, 2013 and March 5, 2013. The committee voted 17–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0574h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0574h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 13, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On March 13, 2013 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 14, 2013 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 30, 2013. 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.
