The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held public hearings on January 28, 2015, February 9, 2015 and February 10, 2015. The committee voted 13–5 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 18, 2015 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On February 18, 2015 the bill was referred to the Finance committee, whose chair waived the referral under House Rule 46(f). It crossed to the Senate on March 12, 2015 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2015. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2015-1267s). The committee's amendment (1267s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 30, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On April 30, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 17–7, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 28, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 14–7 and ordered it to a third reading. On June 3, 2015 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment #1267s (Rep Major)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 11, 2015 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 26, 2015, making it Chapter 163 of the session laws.
