The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 10, 2015. The committee met in executive session on February 17, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 4, 2015 the House rejected a motion to lay it on the table on a division vote 97–235. On March 4, 2015 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 5, 2015 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 24, 2015. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 30, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 7, 2015 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 8, 2015, making it Chapter 111 of the session laws.
