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 11, 2018. The committee met in executive session on April 24, 2018 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2018-1749h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2018-1749h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2018, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2018 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 10, 2018 the Senate voted to reject the other chamber's changes on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. Sharon Carson. On May 10, 2018 the House adopted “House Accedes to Senate Request for CofC” on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. McGuire. On May 23, 2018 the House adopted the conference report (2031c) on a voice vote. On May 23, 2018 the Senate adopted the conference report (2018-2031c) on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2018 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 25, 2018, making it Chapter 321 of the session laws. It took effect on August 24, 2018.
