The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2018. The committee met in executive session on January 25, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 21–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2018-0208h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2018-0208h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 22, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On February 22, 2018 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 8, 2018 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 3, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1366s). The committee's amendment (2018-1366s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 12, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On April 12, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1782s). On May 2, 2018 the Senate adopted “Special Order to 05/03/2018, Without Objection”. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1782s). On May 3, 2018 the Senate adopted “Without Objection, Rule 3-17 is Suspended to Allow Non-Germane Amendment #2018-1782s ; 2/3 Necessary”. The committee's amendment (2018-1782s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 3, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On May 3, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 10, 2018 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate Amendment 1366s and 1782s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Kotowski. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2018-2005e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 25, 2018, making it Chapter 298 of the session laws.
