The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the House Special Committee on Public Employee Pension Plans committee. The committee held work sessions on January 26, 2016, February 2, 2016 and February 8, 2016. The House withdrew that referral and sent the bill to the Finance committee instead. The committee held a work session on February 16, 2016. The committee met in executive session on March 2, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 25–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On March 9, 2016 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
