The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2018. The committee held a work session on February 20, 2018. The committee met in executive session on February 20, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on February 21, 2018. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 6, 2018 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 8, 2018 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 2, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 10, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2018-1955e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on June 8, 2018, making it Chapter 193 of the session laws.
