The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 13, 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 Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 17, 2016. The committee met in executive session on March 29, 2016 to vote on its recommendation.
