Key Business Votes Posted Online

We’ve posted some key business votes from the 2008 General Assembly session online here.

We’ve included votes for:

HB 664 Corporate Reporting Requirements
SB 309 Greenhouse Gas Emissions - Final Vote
SB 309 Greenhouse Gas Emissions - Chamber Supported Amendment
SB 797 Wage Payment on Termination
HB 40 Flexible Leave Act
SB 215 False Claims Act
SB 563 Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act
HB 1241 Committee Vote - Market Share Liability - Lead Paint
HB 606 Committee Vote - Health Care Liability - Noneconomic Damages
HB 607 Committee Vote - Health Care Liability - Apology Bill

We did not include the vote on the tech tax bill in our key votes listing. Repealing the tax was a priority for the Chamber, and we feel it will help preserve technology jobs in Maryland. However, we did not list the vote because we advocated a different funding source than the three-year 6.25 percent income tax bracket for individuals with incomes of over $1 million and the five-year diversion of $50 million per year in transportation revenues included in the bill.
