It was introduced on January 9, 2003 and referred to the House Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2003. The committee held a work session on February 10, 2003. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 17–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 25, 2003 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on April 3, 2003 and was referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 23, 2003. The committee recommended that the Senate send it back to committee. On May 8, 2003 the Senate voted to send it back to committee on a voice vote. The committee held a work session on January 21, 2004.
