The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the House Commerce and Consumer Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 14, 2013. The committee met in executive session on March 5, 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 a work session on October 1, 2013. The committee met in executive session on October 22, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 19–1 to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on January 9, 2014. On February 6, 2014 the House voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote, on a motion by Rep. Billie Butler. The bill died on the table when the session ended on September 17, 2014, having been set aside and never taken back up.
