The Story

It was introduced on January 18, 2012 and referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 6, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 21, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 21, 2012 and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 17, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 16–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 25, 2012 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On April 25, 2012 the House failed “Divide Motion To Lay Senate Bills On Table (Rep Weber)” on a roll call 82–204. On April 25, 2012 the House voted to lay it on the table on a division vote 195–93.
