The Story

It was introduced on September 4, 2003 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 13, 2004. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 5, 2004 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on February 12, 2004 and was referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 3, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0690). The committee's amendment (0690) was adopted on a voice vote on March 11, 2004, changing the text of the bill. On March 11, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On March 11, 2004 the Senate voted to pass it. On April 22, 2004 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote.
