The Story
It was introduced on January 6, 2016 and referred to the Senate Executive Departments and Administration committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 3, 2016. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 18, 2016 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on March 10, 2016 and was referred to the House Science, Technology and Energy committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 22, 2016. The committee met in executive session on March 31, 2016 to vote on its recommendation. The committee recommended, on a tied vote of 9–9, which carries no majority, that the House make no recommendation, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On April 20, 2016 the House rejected a motion to pass it on a division vote 150–167. On April 20, 2016 the House voted to kill it on a division vote 189–130.
