The Story

It was introduced on January 26, 2005 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2005. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 12–5. On March 9, 2005 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 201–125, then referred it on to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 17, 2005. On March 30, 2005 the House adopted “Susp Rules for Report & Action Deadlines” on a voice vote. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 13, 2005 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on April 14, 2005 and was referred to the Senate Banks and Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 3, 2005.
