The Story
It was introduced on January 30, 2003 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 3, 2003. The committee held a work session on March 4, 2003. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee met in executive session on November 19, 2003 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it with changes, by a vote of 13–6. On January 22, 2004 the House adopted “Special Order to Jan 29, without objection”. On January 29, 2004 the House voted to lay it on the table on a division vote 241–87.
