The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 1991 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 1991.

It crossed to the House on March 26, 1991 and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 1991. The majority of the committee recommended that the House send it back to committee by a vote of 15–2, and the report was placed on the consent calendar.
