The committee held work sessions on March 15, 2007 and March 20, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 20, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 27, 2007.
