The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 1995 and referred to the Senate Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 1995. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 9, 1995 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the House on March 16, 1995 and was referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 1995. The committee held a work session on April 18, 1995. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 11–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar.
