The Story
It was introduced on February 14, 2002 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2002. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3042). On March 21, 2002 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. A floor amendment (3061), offered by Sen. Pignatelli, was adopted on a voice vote on March 21, 2002, changing the text of the bill. On March 21, 2002 the Senate adopted “OT3rdg” on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 21, 2002 and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 2, 2002. The majority of the committee recommended that the House kill it by a vote of 14–4. On April 17, 2002 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
