The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2013. The committee met in executive session on February 26, 2013 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 May 14, 2013, May 30, 2013, June 27, 2013 and September 26, 2013. The committee met in executive session on November 7, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 18–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 8, 2014 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
