The Story

It was introduced on January 26, 2005 and referred to the House Election Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 24, 2005. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee voted 13–5 to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On January 4, 2006 the House voted to kill it on a roll call 216–145.
