The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2016. The committee held a work session on February 18, 2016. The committee met in executive session on March 1, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The minority of the committee recommended that the House kill it. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 12–7, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 10, 2016 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 17, 2016 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 14, 2016. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 21, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 11, 2016 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 20, 2016, making it Chapter 109 of the session laws.
