The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the House Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 8, 2007. The committee held work sessions on March 15, 2007 and March 19, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 20, 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 August 6, 2007, September 18, 2007, October 16, 2007, October 26, 2007, November 8, 2007 and November 13, 2007. The committee met in executive session on November 13, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The minority of the committee recommended that the House kill it. A floor amendment (2662h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 23, 2008, changing the text of the bill. On January 23, 2008 the House rejected a motion to pass it with changes on a division vote 153–156. On January 23, 2008 the House voted to kill it on a division vote 178–136.
