Sponsor: Councilmember Campbell
Introduced: May 31, 2007
: Committee on Finance
Status: Lapsed
This bill was introduced in the 2004–2007 Council term and when that term ran out. The public record shows no committee vote and no floor vote at any stage, so no member of Council ever went on record for or against it.
That is not unusual here. Of the 8,465 bills introduced between 2000 and 2025, 1,624 lapsed without a single recorded vote. Ninety percent of bills that became law carry a roll call. Three percent of lapsed bills do. How this works.
This bill allows PAID to apply for a $1.25 million grant from the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to help develop the Please Touch Museum in Philadelphia.
