The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 2016. The committee met in executive session on February 3, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2016-0288h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2016-0288h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 9, 2016, changing the text of the bill. On March 9, 2016 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 17, 2016 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 30, 2016. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 14, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 5, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. An enrolled bill amendment (2016-1976e) was adopted on a voice vote on May 11, 2016. These correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on May 19, 2016 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2016-1976e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on May 27, 2016, making it Chapter 142 of the session laws.
