   In the state where this happened it was passed by their congress but was 
   vetoed in their senate so it never became law.

Florida.  I'm not sure that it was vetoed, though, I'll have to check back.
(The premis of the argument put forth was a quote in the bible about a
certain oasis being 30 cubits around and 10 cubits across, so PId=c solve
for PI.)
