The Story

It was introduced on December 1, 2004 and referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 18, 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 27, 2005 and October 12, 2005. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 12–8. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On January 18, 2006 the House adopted “Special Order to beginning of Reg Cal of Feb 1, Without Objection”. The committee's amendment (0104h) was rejected on a roll call 162–178 on February 1, 2006. On February 1, 2006 the House rejected a motion to pass it on a voice vote. On February 1, 2006 the House voted to kill it on a roll call 244–106.
