The committee met in executive session on February 11, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0468h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0468h) 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 voice vote.
