The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 12, 2016. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 21, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on January 27, 2016 and was referred to the House Public Works and Highways committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 30, 2016. The committee met in executive session on April 5, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held work sessions on April 6, 2016, April 12, 2016 and April 20, 2016. The committee met in executive session on April 26, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 11–5 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2016-1541h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2016-1541h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 11, 2016, changing the text of the bill. On May 11, 2016 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 198–80. On May 19, 2016 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Stiles. The bill was enrolled on June 1, 2016 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 10, 2016, making it Chapter 242 of the session laws. It took effect on June 10, 2016.
