The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 1994 and referred to the House Corrections and Criminal Justice committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 12, 1994. The committee held a work session on February 15, 1994. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 10–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 15, 1994 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 24, 1994 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 20, 1994. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 3, 1994 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. On May 3, 1994 the Senate adopted “Suspend Rules for 3rd reading”, on a motion by Sen. Delahunty. The bill was enrolled on May 17, 1994 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor.
