The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2017 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 8, 2017. The committee held a work session on February 14, 2017. The committee met in executive session on February 28, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 21–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2017-0651h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2017-0651h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 8, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On March 8, 2017 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 9, 2017 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 18, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2017-1453s). The committee's amendment (2017-1453s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 27, 2017, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2017-1548s), offered by Sen. Soucy, was adopted on a voice vote on April 27, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On April 27, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 1, 2017 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 1453s and 1548s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Kotowski. The bill was enrolled on June 22, 2017 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2017-2209e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 5, 2017, making it Chapter 197 of the session laws.
