The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2014 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2014. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0716s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0716s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 6, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On March 6, 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 March 20, 2014 and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 8, 2014. The committee met in executive session on April 16, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-1310h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (1310h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 23, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On April 23, 2014 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 1, 2014 the Senate adopted “Sen. Carson Concurs with House Amendment #1310h” on a voice vote. An enrolled bill amendment (1804eba) was adopted on a voice vote on May 7, 2014. These correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on May 15, 2014 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2014-1804e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. 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 21, 2014, making it Chapter 248 of the session laws.
