The Story

It was introduced on January 25, 2001 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 15, 2001. The committee held a work session on March 21, 2001. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it by a vote of 10–8. On January 2, 2002 the House adopted “Recommitted to Elec Law” on a voice vote. The majority of the committee recommended that the House kill it unanimously, 15–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 31, 2002 the House voted to kill it.
