The Story

It was introduced on January 5, 2005 and referred to the Senate Environment and Wildlife committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On January 27, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On January 27, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on February 9, 2005 and was referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 22, 2005. The committee held a work session on February 24, 2005. The committee voted 17–2 to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 30, 2005. On April 6, 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.
