The Story

On September 16, 2015 the Senate adopted “suspend all rules necessary to permit the consideration at the present time of SB 9, and if adopted, to permit third reading and final passage in the early session, 2/3 necessary” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. On September 16, 2015 the Senate adopted “Introduction” on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Bradley. On September 16, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 24–0 and ordered it to a third reading. On September 16, 2015 the House adopted “Suspend House Rules to Allow Present Action After Deadline (Reps Flanagan and Shurtleff)” on a roll call 285–93. On September 16, 2015 the House took up 4 floor amendments and rejected all of them: 2015-2391h (94–264), 2015-2392h (96–265), 2015-2393h (65–289) and 2015-2394h (93–263). On September 16, 2015 the House voted to pass it on a roll call 291–73. On September 16, 2015 the House failed “Reconsider (Rep Hinch)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on September 16, 2015 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on September 17, 2015, making it Chapter 274 of the session laws.
