The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 1995 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 1995. The committee held a work session on February 21, 1995. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 8–3. On March 9, 1995 the House adopted “Suspend Rules to ref to 2nd comm”, on a motion by Rep. A Torr & Buckley. On March 9, 1995 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the House Finance committee. 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 March 30, 1995 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 26, 1995. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 4, 1995 the Senate voted to pass it, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee.
