MINOR
The bill was amended to expand its protection by explicitly including 'revocation' alongside 'suspension' of driver's licenses. This ensures that individuals in treatment court programs are shielded from having their licenses revoked when they take a plea, not just when they are suspended.
Scope change
The bill's scope was broadened to cover license revocations in addition to suspensions.
ELIGIBILITY
The text was changed from limiting protection to 'suspension' to covering both 'suspension or revocation' of a driver's license.
TIMELINE
The bill number was updated to reflect its amended status (S 7928A), and the committee history was updated to show it was re-committed after amendment.
