The Story

It was introduced on January 9, 2003 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 23, 2003. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on June 4, 2003 and September 24, 2003. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 14–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 7, 2004 the House voted to pass it. It crossed to the Senate on January 29, 2004 and was referred to the Senate Internal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 3, 2004. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On April 22, 2004 the Senate voted to kill it on a voice vote.
