The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2017 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On January 19, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 16, 2017 and was referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 15, 2017. The committee met in executive session on March 15, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 23, 2017 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On March 23, 2017 the bill was referred to the Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2017. The committee held a work session on April 18, 2017. The committee met in executive session on April 18, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2017-1427h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2017-1427h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 4, 2017, changing the text of the bill. On May 4, 2017 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 11, 2017 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sanborn. The bill was enrolled on May 18, 2017 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 8, 2017, making it Chapter 106 of the session laws.
