The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2005 and referred to the Senate Environment and Wildlife committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 1, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0139). The committee's amendment (0139) was adopted on a voice vote on February 10, 2005, changing the text of the bill. On February 10, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On February 10, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on February 15, 2005 and was referred to the House Fish and Game committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 17, 2005. The committee held a work session on March 30, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 12–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 4, 2005 the House voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 17, 2005. The committee voted 16–3 to recommend that the House pass it with changes. On May 25, 2005 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 2, 2005 the Senate adopted “Sen. Johnson Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 9, 2005 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor.
