Summary: The Senate received messages from the House transmitting several signed bills, then moved through a series of second- and third-reading actions on multiple measures. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2508, clarifying the scope and authority of the Office of Independent Investigations, was advanced to final passage without objection and passed 44-4. Senators supporting it described it as a technical housekeeping bill aligning statute with current practice, while noting it had broad support from law enforcement groups and the ACLU; opponents raised concerns about overlapping investigations and authority. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1408, which dedicates a share of sales tax revenue from the stadium area to the South Downtown/Pioneer Square community preservation and development authority, was amended by a Ways and Means striking amendment declaring an emergency and then passed 47-1. Supporters said it would fund earthquake reinforcement, preservation, and community development in a historic district, with reporting and sunset provisions. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1500, dealing with resale certificates for common interest communities and homeowners associations, was amended to clarify disclosure and litigation provisions and passed 39-9. Substitute House Bill 1570, allowing collective bargaining for certain employees enrolled in academic programs at public institutions, failed an amendment to remove the emergency clause and then passed 29-19; supporters framed it as recognition of student workers’ organizing rights, while opponents warned it blurred student and employee roles. The Senate also passed Substitute House Bill 1390, repealing the Community Protection Program and directing participants into other developmental disability services, after rejecting a series of amendments that sought to preserve sex-offender-related restrictions, add assessments, damages, or prosecutorial review. The bill passed 29-20 amid sharp debate over whether the program was coercive and outdated or necessary to protect vulnerable people and communities. Other bills passed included Substitute House Bill 2114 on defective license plates, Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2471 on collective bargaining if the NLRB is unavailable, House Bill 1069 on bargaining over supplemental retirement contributions for Department of Corrections employees, House Bill 2441 expanding medical premium reimbursements for surviving spouses of line-of-duty deaths, and Engrossed Third Substitute House Bill 1710 adding preclearance requirements under the Washington Voting Rights Act; the voting rights bill drew opposition over local control and litigation concerns. The transcript ends during the roll call on final passage of Engrossed Third Substitute House Bill 1710.

Summary: The Senate opened with roll call, the Pledge of Allegiance, prayer, and approval of the previous day’s journal. It received a House message that the House had passed second engrossed substitute Senate Bill 5010, and then took up Senate Resolution 8700 honoring Yolanda Cortinas Trout Manuel for her community service, business leadership, and public service. Senator Fortunato sponsored the resolution and spoke warmly in support, and the Senate adopted it by voice vote and recognized the guest in the gallery. The chamber then confirmed Gubernatorial Appointment No. 9142, Maria Seguyenza to the Western Washington University Board of Trustees, after supportive remarks from Senators Bateman and Wilson-Clair. The Senate also passed Substitute House Bill 2248, described as a technical cleanup bill for Secretary of State corporate filings, and House Bill 2309, which removes postgraduate degree requirements for certain state jobs to broaden applicant pools. House Bill 2348 passed as a Department of Natural Resources efficiency measure allowing smaller land sales to be posted online and clarifying fair-market-value requirements. The Senate deferred Second Substitute House Bill 1128 at first, then later adopted a striking amendment and passed the bill as amended. The bill creates a child care workforce standards board to study workforce conditions and make recommendations; several proposed amendments by Senator King to add child-safety training language, add an expiration date, and narrow the board’s scope were rejected. Supporters said the board would professionalize child care work and improve wages and standards, while opponents argued it would add government and costs without solving affordability. The Senate also passed Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 2523 on the Community Reinvestment Program, with supporters emphasizing accountability, periodic review, and an independent study, and passed Substitute House Bill 2428 to prevent unintentional lapses in life insurance policies by allowing third-party notices. Finally, the Senate passed House Bill 2340, expanding the CARES substance use disorder recovery program to nursing assistants, and Engrossed House Bill 2317, which streamlines licensing for Early Childhood Education and Assistance Program sites in certain educational settings. Most bills passed by wide margins, though Second Substitute House Bill 1128 passed with a narrower 28-19 vote. The Senate then recessed for lunch and caucus.

Summary: The Senate took up a series of House bills, often suspending the rules to move measures directly to final passage after brief debate. Messages from the House reported signed bills being transmitted, and the Senate later signed several measures in open session. The chamber also excused a few members from voting on specific bills. Among the first major actions, Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2508, clarifying the scope and authority of the Office of Independent Investigations, passed 44-4 after supporters described it as a technical housekeeping bill and opponents raised concerns about overlapping investigations. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1408, which dedicates 20% of sales tax revenue from the two large stadiums to a community preservation and development authority in South Downtown/Pioneer Square/Chinatown International District, passed 47-1 after supporters emphasized reinvestment in historic buildings and neighborhood safety. Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1500, requiring more complete resale certificates for common interest communities and homeowners associations, passed 39-9 after a successful amendment clarifying litigation language. Substitute House Bill 1570, allowing collective bargaining for certain student employees at public institutions, failed an amendment to remove the emergency clause and then passed 29-19 despite objections that it blurs student and employee roles. The chamber then debated Substitute House Bill 1390, which repeals the Community Protection Program and directs DSHS to transition participants into other developmental disability services. Numerous amendments sought to preserve restrictions, add assessments, or create liability protections, but most were rejected; the committee striking amendment updating agency names and dates was adopted. The bill passed 29-20 after a lengthy, emotional debate over whether the program protects public safety or unfairly restricts people with developmental disabilities, with supporters citing civil rights concerns and opponents warning about risks to vulnerable residents and the lack of a detailed transition plan. Other measures passed with broad support, including Substitute House Bill 2114 on defective license plates (48-0), Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2471 on collective bargaining if the NLRB loses authority (31-18), House Bill 1069 on bargaining over supplemental retirement contributions for Department of Corrections employees (31-18), House Bill 2441 expanding medical premium reimbursements for surviving spouses of line-of-duty deaths (49-0), and Engrossed Third Substitute House Bill 1710 adding preclearance requirements under the Washington Voting Rights Act, which drew debate over local control and litigation but had not yet reached a final vote by the end of the transcript.

Summary: The committee held public hearings on Substitute Senate Bill 6183, which would require health plans, including public and school employee plans, to cover FDA-approved HIV antiviral drugs without prior authorization, step therapy, or other utilization management when therapeutic equivalents exist. The prime sponsor said the bill is part of Washington’s effort to end HIV/AIDS and argued that delaying access to needed medication is especially harmful for late-stage diagnoses. No one testified in person or remotely, and public testimony was closed. The committee then heard Substitute Senate Bill 6226, which would limit the Board of Hearing and Speech from adopting rules that prevent licensed audiologists, speech-language pathologists, and hearing aid specialists from using clinical judgment to choose telehealth or in-person care. Supporters said teleaudiology expands access, especially in rural areas and for patients with mobility barriers, while some testifiers raised patient safety concerns about first-time hearing aid fittings and asked for amendments or more time to review safeguards. One testifier said the Washington Hearing Society had moved to neutral after discussions on amendments. In executive session, the committee adopted amendments and advanced several measures. Substitute Senate Bill 5185, on international medical school graduate physician licensing, passed with a technical amendment and a do pass recommendation. Substitute Senate Bill 5845, on timing of claims payments, was amended to include tribal health care systems, shorten carrier refund-request timelines, and delay implementation to January 1, 2028, then passed 17-1. Senate Bill 5915, prioritizing certain health technology assessments, and Senate Bill 6025, modifying the definition of fetal death, both passed unanimously. Senate Joint Memorial 8002, asking the federal government to change Medicare policy, passed 15-3. The committee then adjourned.

Summary: The Senate Committee on Criminal Justice met with a quorum present and took up three bills tied to bail reform and law enforcement records. Senator Huffman presented SJR 87, a proposed constitutional amendment that would require denial of bail for people accused of certain serious felony offenses if they have a prior conviction for, or are already on bond for, one of those offenses and there is probable cause to believe they committed another listed offense. Supporters said it would give judges a needed tool to detain repeat violent offenders; opponents from the ACLU of Texas and Texas Civil Rights Project argued it would mandate detention without individualized due process and weaken the presumption of innocence. The committee voted 7-1 to report SJR 87 favorably, with Senator Miles voting no. The committee then heard SB 3073, which would require magistrates who find no probable cause after an arrest to enter written findings supporting that determination. Senator Huffman said the bill was a narrow cleanup measure to improve transparency and provide guidance to law enforcement and prosecutors without limiting judicial discretion. With no invited or public testimony, the committee voted 6-1 to report SB 3073 favorably, again with Senator Miles dissenting. Finally, the committee considered SB 781, a committee substitute dealing with law enforcement file management and personnel records. Senator King explained that the bill would standardize policies already used in many Texas cities and under civil service rules, separating public and sealed personnel information while preserving access for criminal defense discovery. Senator Miles raised concerns that sealing exonerated allegations could hide patterns of misconduct and allow problematic officers to move between agencies. The committee adopted the committee substitute and voted 6-1 to report SB 781 favorably, with Senator Miles voting no. The committee then recessed subject to the chair’s call.

Summary: The Environment & Energy Committee held executive action on three bills. SB 6291 would extend from two to four years the period a non-certified person may review designs and inspect on-site wastewater treatment systems under supervision of a certified individual; the committee adopted a striking amendment making a technical correction to the system definition, then reported the bill out 18-0 with three excused. Members described it as a good-government measure that helps local public health employers retain staff while maintaining water-quality protections. ESB 6246 concerns no-cost allowance allocations for emissions-intensive, trade-exposed facilities under the Climate Commitment Act. The committee adopted a striking amendment that, among other changes, requires Ecology to contract with an independent third party for a 2028 report on emissions and job leakage, revises the 2026 reporting language, removes subunit reporting, requires unaffiliated licensed professional engineers to review facility assessments, and protects certain proprietary information from public disclosure while allowing aggregated summaries. Supporters said it helps evaluate decarbonization options and leakage risks without mandating implementation; opponents argued it adds costs and burdens to industry amid rising production costs. The bill passed 11-7 with three excused. The committee also took up ESB 5975, which changes allowable lead standards for certain cookware and adjusts the Safer Products for Washington process. After adopting a striking amendment, members said the bill balances public health concerns about lead exposure with industry concerns and allows continued sale of cookware in Washington while setting future standards. The committee reported the bill out by voice vote, 18-0 with three excused.

Summary: The House Health Care and Wellness Committee held public hearings on several Senate bills and one joint memorial. SB 5915 would update the Health Technology Assessment Program by adding Medicare-recommended or guideline-recommended technologies to the review priority list, requiring broader evidence review for rare or life-threatening diseases, and setting posting and decision deadlines; supporters from rare disease families and clinicians said the current process is outdated and too rigid, while the sponsor said the bill reflects needed modernization. SJM 8002 urges the federal government to oppose Medicare privatization and make changes to original Medicare and Medicare Advantage, including eliminating the 20% coinsurance in original Medicare, adding dental/vision/hearing benefits, reducing Medicare Advantage overpayments, and recouping fraud and abuse funds; labor, senior, and retiree advocates supported it as a way to protect beneficiaries and the Medicare trust fund. The committee also heard SB 5395 on prior authorization, which would require more transparency in denial notices, limit denial decisions to licensed clinicians, restrict AI from being the sole basis for denials or delays, and address retrospective denials; providers, hospitals, and patient advocates supported the bill as a compromise to reduce delays and inappropriate denials, while insurers were generally neutral but sought a narrow amendment. SB 5845 would tighten payment timelines for clean claims, require faster notice and information requests for non-clean claims, and authorize penalties for chronic noncompliance; hospitals and physicians said predictable payment is essential for financial stability, while insurers were neutral and requested a limited amendment. SB 6025 would change the fetal death definition to use the best clinically accurate gestational age rather than the last menstrual period; OB-GYNs, nurses, and medical groups supported it as a medically accurate update, while one opponent objected on moral grounds. The committee also heard SB 5988, which would authorize the Department of Health to continue accrediting opioid treatment programs and set fees to cover the program’s costs; the sponsor and DOH said it is needed to maintain a patient-centered accreditation option after budget cuts, and the bill was described as a companion to House legislation. Finally, SB 5917 would change how the Department of Corrections coordinates distribution of state-purchased abortion medications, remove the current cost-plus-fee requirement, and broaden the definition of abortion medication; supporters said it would allow the stockpiled medication to be distributed to providers and patients, while opponents argued it promotes abortion and misuses public funds. The transcript ends with the committee closing public testimony and adjourning, with no votes taken in the hearing.
