The Story
It was introduced on January 26, 2005 and referred to the House Environment and Agriculture committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2005. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on March 22, 2005, May 10, 2005, May 17, 2005 and November 1, 2005. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 4, 2006 the House voted to kill it.
