SB 122: EMPLOYER'S LIABILITY FOR REFERENCE INFO Number 099 GAYLE HORETSKI, COMMITTEE COUNSEL, HOUSE JUDICIARY COMMITTEE, called the members' attention to a draft committee substitute for SB 122, dated April 9, 1993. She mentioned that a companion bill, HB 147, which the House Judiciary Committee had passed out earlier, was currently in the House Rules Committee. She stated that the draft committee substitute for SB 122 included language at the bottom of page 1 and the top of page 2 which had been lifted from the House Judiciary Committee's substitute for HB 147. MS. HORETSKI said that the draft committee substitute had two additional differences from the House Judiciary Committee's version of HB 147. She added that those two differences were part of the bill which the Senate had passed. The first change appeared on page 1, line 11, where the phrase "employer or" was added, in order to clarify that the bill applied to both present and former employers who gave out references. The other change appeared on page 2, line 2, and added the word "comparable," to clarify that the bill referred to federal civil rights laws, not all federal laws. Number 199 MS. HORETSKI described the changes that the committee had made to the original HB 147.
