To move the effective date of the bill back until Jan. 1, 2015. Note: There is speculation that the House Republican leadership has placed the recall revisions in House Bills 6058 to 6063 on a "fast track" due to union recall threats related to state "right-to-work" legislation. These bills are perceived as making recalls harder.
