The Story

On February 11, 1999 the Senate adopted “Health and Human Services Committee.” on a voice vote. The committee held a public hearing on April 6, 1999. The minority of the committee recommended that the Senate pass it. The majority of the committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 20, 1999 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 13–11. On May 20, 1999 the Senate rejected a motion to send it back to committee on a roll call 10–14 and ordered it to a third reading, on a motion by Sen. Gordon. It was introduced on May 25, 1999 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on June 1, 1999. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 14–5. On June 22, 1999 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
