The Story
It was introduced on January 5, 2000 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held public hearings on January 11, 2000 and February 15, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3691). On March 16, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 6, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House study it after the session ends by a vote of 13–3. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “NOT REC FOR LEGIS IN 2001”, by a vote of 16 to 0.
