The Story

It was introduced on January 26, 2005 and referred to the House Criminal Justice and Public Safety committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 22, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 30, 2005 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 31, 2005 and was referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 24, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1613). The committee's amendment (1613) was adopted on a voice vote on June 2, 2005, changing the text of the bill. On June 2, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 2, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. On June 8, 2005 the House voted to reject the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. On June 9, 2005 the Senate adopted “Senator Foster Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 21, 2005 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill.
