The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Health, Education and Human Services committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2013. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2013-0328s). The committee's amendment (0328s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2013 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 27, 2013 and was referred to the House Education committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 23, 2013. The committee met in executive session on May 9, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held a work session on May 15, 2013. The committee met in executive session on May 21, 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 August 13, 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.
