 * GA review (see here for criteria)


 * 1) It is reasonably well written.
 * a (prose): b (MoS):
 * 1) It is factually accurate and verifiable.
 * a (references): b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):
 * 1) It is broad in its coverage.
 * a (major aspects): b (focused):
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) It is stable.
 * No edit wars etc.:
 * 1) It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
 * a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * An excellent article, and the work put in since the first GA review certainly shows. I really have only one minor concern, which is not enough for me to hold off on passing the article:  The state-by-state chart is inconsistent in how status is displayed.  Some states where the bill has only been introduced lists the status as either "red/not voted on" or "yellow/pending".  They should consistently be one or the other.

Thank you very much for reviewing (and passing :-) ) this article. Regarding the issue you point out, the status is actually pending for states where the bill might still be passed. The status is red if the legislative session is closed, meaning that the bill definitely cannot be passed anymore (unless it is reintroduced in the next session, of course). --KarlFrei (talk) 21:17, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
 * That makes sense. It might be helpful to note that below the chart, imo.  Resolute 21:48, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
