The Story

The committee held a public hearing on April 19, 2011. The majority recommended that the House kill it, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 8–4. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On May 4, 2011 the House rejected a motion to kill it on a division vote 89–247. On May 4, 2011 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It was introduced on May 4, 2011 and referred to the Senate Health and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 19, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate send it back to committee. On May 25, 2011 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Sen. De Blois. The bill died on the table when the session ended on September 7, 2011, having been set aside and never taken back up.
