The Story

It was introduced on January 31, 2007 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 14, 2007. The committee met in executive session on March 15, 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 April 24, 2007, May 15, 2007, June 5, 2007, June 26, 2007 and September 20, 2007. The committee met in executive session on October 23, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, 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.
