The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the Senate Energy and Natural Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 4, 2015. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 12, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On March 12, 2015 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 13–11 and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 12, 2015 and was referred to the House Fish and Game and Marine Resources committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 26, 2015. The committee met in executive session on March 31, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it, and the minority recommended that the House kill it, by a vote of 9–2. The report was placed on the regular calendar. A floor amendment (1318h) was adopted on a division vote 183–162 on April 15, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On April 15, 2015 the House voted to lay it on the table on a roll call 188–158. The bill died on the table when the session ended on November 18, 2015, having been set aside and never taken back up.
