The Story
It was introduced on January 4, 2006 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 31, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1199). The committee's amendment (1199) was adopted on a voice vote on March 9, 2006, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (1180), offered by Sen. Clegg, was rejected on a roll call 6–16 on March 9, 2006. On March 9, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it.
