The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2014 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 21, 2014. The committee met in executive session on January 28, 2014 and February 4, 2014. The committee voted 14–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 25, 2014. On March 25, 2014 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 27, 2014 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 29, 2014. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 8, 2014 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 22, 2014 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 28, 2014, making it Chapter 273 of the session laws.
