The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 6, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on May 17, 2007 and September 12, 2007. The committee met in executive session on November 13, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 2, 2008 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
