The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 1996 and referred to the House Regulated Revenues committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 24, 1996. The committee held a work session on January 24, 1996. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 8–7. On February 15, 1996 the House adopted “Recommit” on a voice vote. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 6–5. On March 5, 1996 the House adopted “Suspend Rules to consider after deadline”, on a motion by Rep. A Torr & Buckley. On March 6, 1996 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. On March 19, 1996 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 169–146.
