The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 16, 2012. The committee held work sessions on February 16, 2012 and February 21, 2012. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0970h), and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 12–5. The report was placed on the regular calendar. On March 14, 2012 the House adopted “Lay On The Table (Rep Jasper)” on a division vote 281–32.
