The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2008 and referred to the House Fish and Game committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 15, 2008. The committee met in executive session on January 29, 2008 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House pass it. On February 6, 2008 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 21, 2008 and was referred to the Senate Election Law and Internal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 26, 2008. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1692) was rejected on a voice vote on May 15, 2008. A floor amendment (1896), offered by Sen. Burling, was adopted on a voice vote on May 15, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On May 15, 2008 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 21, 2008 the House adopted “House Non-Concurs and Requests Committee of Conference (Rep Abbott)” on a voice vote. On May 21, 2008 the Senate adopted “Sen. Burling Accede to House Request For Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on May 29, 2008 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill.
