The Story
It was introduced on January 9, 2003 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 19, 2003. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on May 20, 2003, May 27, 2003 and June 4, 2003. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 8–5. On January 15, 2004 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
