  CHAIRMAN HUDSON brought up SB 64.                                            
                                                                               
  SB 64 - IMMUNITY FOR SAFETY INSPECTIONS                                      
                                                                               
  Number 075                                                                   
                                                                               
  REP. GREEN asked for an update on SB 64 and HB 241.                          
                                                                               
  Number 090                                                                   
                                                                               
  REP. MULDER explained to the committee that he had been                      
  encouraging all sides to this issue to come to some                          
  compromise to no avail.  Rep. Mulder felt that passage of SB
  64 would only advance one side of the issue and further                      
  endanger any hopes of successful negotiations of the ad hoc                  
  task force on worker's compensation reform.                                  
                                                                               
  REP. MULDER contended that if SB 64 were to pass, labor                      
  would never participate again and that would not be good                     
  public policy.                                                               
                                                                               
  Number 117                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN HUDSON called for a roll call vote on passage of                    
  SB 64:                                                                       
                                                                               
  Rep. Williams         nay                                                    
  Rep. Green            nay                                                    
  Rep. Sitton           nay                                                    
  Rep. Mulder           nay                                                    
  Rep. Hudson           nay                                                    
  Rep. Porter           absent                                                 
  REp. Mackie           absent                                                 
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN HUDSON announced the failure of SB 64 to pass the                   
  committee.                                                                   
                                                                               
  CHAIRMAN HUDSON adjourned the meeting at 3:15 p.m.
