The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 10, 2011. The committee met in executive session on February 15, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0324h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 13–5. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0324h) was adopted on a division vote 232–52 on February 23, 2011, changing the text of the bill. A floor amendment (2011-0408h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 23, 2011, changing the text of the bill. On February 23, 2011 the House failed “Recommit (Rep Kaen)” on a roll call 100–250.

The committee met in executive session on March 17, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 17–6. The report was placed on the regular calendar.
