The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2019 and referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 22, 2019. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On January 31, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on January 31, 2019 and was referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 13, 2019. The committee met in executive session on February 21, 2019 and March 6, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 19, 2019 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on April 4, 2019 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 10, 2019, making it Chapter 18 of the session laws.
