The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2006 and referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 11, 2006. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0405) was adopted on a voice vote on February 2, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On February 2, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On February 10, 2006 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House on February 22, 2006 and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 23, 2006. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 1782h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 13–2. The committee's amendment (1782h) was adopted on a voice vote on April 26, 2006, changing the text of the bill. On April 26, 2006 the House adopted “Flr AM” on a voice vote.
