The Story
It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 20, 2012. The committee held work sessions on February 2, 2012, February 16, 2012 and February 21, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0931h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0931h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 7, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 29, 2012. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-1865s). The committee's amendment (1865s) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On May 2, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading.
