The Story

It was introduced on January 30, 2003 and referred to the Senate Public Institutions, Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2003. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0820). The committee's amendment (0820) was adopted on a voice vote on March 27, 2003, changing the text of the bill. On March 27, 2003 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On April 10, 2003 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it on a voice vote. On April 10, 2003 the Senate rejected a motion to lay it on the table. A floor amendment (1210), offered by Sen. O'Hearn, was adopted on a roll call 18–4 on April 10, 2003, changing the text of the bill. On April 10, 2003 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On April 10, 2003 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on April 10, 2003 and was referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 22, 2003. The committee held work sessions on April 29, 2003, May 1, 2003 and May 5, 2003. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The majority of the committee recommended that the House kill it unanimously, 16–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 7, 2004 the House voted to kill it.
