The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 1994 and referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The Senate withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Judiciary committee instead. The committee held a public hearing on February 9, 1994. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On February 15, 1994 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a division vote, then referred it on to the Senate Fin committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 22, 1994 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 1994. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 19–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 19, 1994 the House voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the House Appropriations committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 26, 1994.
