The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2018. The committee met in executive session on February 6, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The minority of the committee recommended that the House kill it. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 13–6, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On February 22, 2018 the House voted to pass it on a roll call 208–116. It crossed to the Senate on March 8, 2018 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 20, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 5, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on April 19, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 15, 2018, making it Chapter 22 of the session laws.
