I wrote to Rep Beavers to find out what was happening, and this is the response that I got:
Ms. Gryder:
Senator Beavers found that she didn't have the support for this bill this session and instead of letting it go to a vote and being killed, she did not run it. The bill can be brought back in the 2010 session that begins in January. We'll see what happens next year.
