The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2013. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 14, 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 Executive Departments and Administration committee.
