The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 7, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 27, 2013 and was referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 9, 2013. The committee met in executive session on April 18, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 17–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 24, 2013 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 2, 2013 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 6, 2013, making it Chapter 68 of the session laws. It took effect on August 5, 2013.
