The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2018 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 14, 2018. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 15, 2018 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 15, 2018 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2018. The committee met in executive session on April 10, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–1 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 19, 2018 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on April 26, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 21, 2018, making it Chapter 286 of the session laws.
