The Story
It was introduced on February 5, 1991 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 25, 1991.

On March 19, 1991 the House adopted “Suspend Rules to consider on 03/19/1991”, on a motion by Rep. Gross & Chambers. On March 19, 1991 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 1991 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 9, 1991.
