The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 17, 2007. The committee held work sessions on January 24, 2007 and January 30, 2007. The committee met in executive session on January 30, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0022h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 15, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On February 15, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 22, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 10, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading.
