The Story
It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the Senate Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 10, 2015. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2015-0994s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0994s) was adopted on a voice vote on March 26, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On March 26, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Judiciary committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2015. The committee met in executive session on April 21, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 29, 2015 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
