2009 House Bill 4316

Senate Roll Call 131: Motion to postpone "for the day" further consideration of a motion to discharge House Bills 4316 to 4318 from the Committee on Government Operations and Reform, and bring them directly to the full Senate for an up-or-down vote. These bills would repeal a “tort reform” law passed in 1995 that banned product liability lawsuits against drug companies for drugs that have been approved by the U.S. Food And Drug Administration (FDA). "Postpone for the day" is a parliamentary maneuver that in this case essentially means the bills are dead in the Senate
