The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 16, 2018. The committee held a work session on February 6, 2018. The committee met in executive session on February 13, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2018-0796h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2018-0796h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 6, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On March 6, 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 Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 27, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1248s). The committee's amendment (2018-1248s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 19, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On April 19, 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 1248s” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Rick Ladd. 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 (2018-2080e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 25, 2018, making it Chapter 299 of the session laws.
