It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 8, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 8, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 14–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 27, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 18, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 29, 2007.
