The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Labor, Industrial and Rehabilitative Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 1, 2011. The committee met in executive session on March 1, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on September 21, 2011 and October 4, 2011. The committee met in executive session on October 27, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2759h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (2759h) was adopted on a voice vote on January 4, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On January 4, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on February 8, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Commerce committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 27, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 11, 2012 the Senate voted to kill it on a voice vote.
