It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The House withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Ways and Means committee instead. The committee held a public hearing on February 9, 2012. The committee met in executive session on February 16, 2012 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 19–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 7, 2012 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
