The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2006 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2006. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 15, 2006 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 16, 2006 and was referred to the Senate Banks and Insurance committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 21, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1480). On April 6, 2006 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. On May 4, 2006 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote. The committee's amendment (1480) was rejected on a voice vote on May 4, 2006. A floor amendment (2086), offered by Sen. Flanders, 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 with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 4, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it. On May 11, 2006 the Senate adopted “Sen. Flanders Accede to House Request for Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on May 18, 2006 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill.
