The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2014 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 14, 2014. The committee held work sessions on January 16, 2014, January 21, 2014, January 23, 2014 and January 28, 2014. The committee met in executive session on January 28, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0268h) by a vote of 14–8, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The minority of the committee reported: Refer to Interim Study. The committee's amendment (0268h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 19, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On February 19, 2014 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 196–132. It crossed to the Senate on March 13, 2014 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 1, 2014. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2014-1256s). The committee's amendment (1256s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 17, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On April 17, 2014 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 14, 2014 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Mary Jane Wallner. 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 11, 2014, making it Chapter 182 of the session laws.
