The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the House Legislative Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2015. The committee met in executive session on March 3, 2015 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 13, 2015. The committee met in executive session on October 13, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 9–1 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 6, 2016. On January 20, 2016 the House voted to kill it on a roll call 224–75.
