The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2014-0506h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0506h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 5, 2014, changing the text of the bill. On March 5, 2014 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote.
