The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2006 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2006. The committee held a work session on January 25, 2006. The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1142h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 7, 2006 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 16, 2006 and was referred to the Senate Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 4, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1858). The committee's amendment (1858) was adopted on a voice vote on May 4, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it.
