It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2007. The committee held work sessions on January 30, 2007, February 7, 2007 and February 8, 2007. The committee met in executive session on February 15, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 24–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0050h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 21, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On March 21, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 22, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it.
