The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2014 and referred to the Senate Health, Education and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 14, 2014. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0149s). The committee's amendment (0149s) was adopted on a voice vote on January 30, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On January 30, 2014 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee voted unanimously, 6–0, to recommend that the Senate study it after the session ends, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 6, 2014. On March 6, 2014 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bragdon. On March 13, 2014 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. On March 13, 2014 the Senate adopted “Recommit to Finance” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2014-1076s). The committee's amendment (1076s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 27, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On March 27, 2014 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on April 1, 2014 and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2014. The committee met in executive session on April 15, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 14–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 23, 2014 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On April 23, 2014 the bill was referred to the Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 29, 2014. The committee met in executive session on May 6, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-1659h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2014-1659h) was adopted on May 14, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On May 14, 2014 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 22, 2014 the Senate adopted “Sen. Stiles Concurs with House Amendments #1659h, NT” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 4, 2014 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2005eba) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on June 17, 2014 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2014-2005e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. It became law without the governor's signature on August 2, 2014, as Chapter 328. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
