It was introduced on January 7, 1993 and referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 1993. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On February 18, 1993 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the House on March 10, 1993 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 25, 1993. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 17–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar.
