The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the Senate Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 22, 2007 the Senate adopted “Senator Odell Moved to Recommit” on a voice vote. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 29, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on April 5, 2007 and was referred to the House Ways and Means committee.
