The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the Senate Commerce, Labor and Consumer Protection committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 20, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 8, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 28, 2007 and was referred to the House Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 2007. The committee held work sessions on April 25, 2007 and May 3, 2007. The committee met in executive session on May 3, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–6 to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1383h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 16, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On May 16, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
