It was introduced on January 26, 2005 and referred to the House Children and Family Law committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 8, 2005. The committee held work sessions on February 24, 2005 and March 22, 2005. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on September 13, 2005, September 20, 2005, October 4, 2005, October 20, 2005, October 26, 2005, November 2, 2005 and November 8, 2005.
