Summary: The Senate Transportation Committee met in executive session to review three measures: the proposed substitute for Senate Bill 6005, the supplemental transportation budget; Senate Bill 6225, authorizing additional transportation bonds; and Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2508, relating to the Office of Independent Investigations. Staff briefed eight amendments to SB 6005, including technical corrections, funding and reporting changes, and several project-specific additions such as ferry operations, rail projects, and bridge or electrification work. The committee also heard a briefing on SB 6225, which would increase bond authorizations, including general transportation bonds, gas tax bonds for Move Ahead Washington projects, and SR 520 bonds, while repealing some older authorizations. During executive session, the committee adopted all eight amendments to SB 6005, then rolled them into the substitute bill and advanced it with a due-pass recommendation to the Rules Committee. The committee also advanced SB 6225 with a due-pass recommendation to the Rules Committee. ESHB 2508 was moved without recommendation to the Ways and Means Committee. Members concluded by thanking staff for their work on the budget and bond legislation before adjourning.

Summary: The Senate met on February 23, 2026, opened with the usual roll call, pledge, prayer, and approval of the previous journal. Members then adopted Senate Resolution 8698 recognizing piano teachers, with several senators sharing personal remarks about their own teachers and the role of music education in families and communities. Guests from the Washington State Music Teachers Association and the National Guild of Piano Teachers were recognized in the gallery. The chamber then moved into budget debate, considering a series of amendments to the operating budget. Several proposals focused on housing costs, local planning, utility rates, and state spending restraint. Amendment 0772, which would have created a housing-related task force and increased funding, was rejected after debate over housing affordability and regulatory costs. Amendment 0785, restoring growth management planning funding for local governments, was also rejected. Amendment 0791, directing the Department of Commerce to study the effects of climate and clean energy laws on utility costs, and Amendment 0769, related to grid capacity and clean energy investments, were both adopted. Other amendments drew sharper partisan debate. Amendment 0798, which would have reduced the Supreme Court from nine justices to five and redirected savings to public defense, failed. Amendments 0794 and 0795, seeking funding for ballot measure costs tied to initiatives, also failed. Amendment 0799, intended to redirect Pacific Tower lease savings to developmental disability services, was rejected after discussion of the building’s current public uses. Amendment 0773, capping state spending growth and tying it to median wage growth, failed on a roll call vote, while Amendment 0777, addressing concurrent use of paid family and medical leave and sick leave by state employees, also failed after extended debate. Later, Amendment 0776 on tort liability reporting was adopted, as were Amendment 0758 creating a DSHS work group on community-based services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities, and Amendment 0786 was introduced to reduce cash and food assistance work-related funding, with debate beginning before the transcript ends.

Summary: The Senate convened with roll call, prayer, and approval of the previous day’s journal, then moved to a resolution honoring piano teachers. Senate Resolution 8698 was adopted after remarks from Senator Conway and others describing the role of piano teachers in music education, family life, and community service. Members of the Washington State Music Teachers Association and the National Guild of Piano Teachers were recognized in the gallery. The chamber then took up the operating budget and considered a long series of amendments. Several amendments focused on housing costs and local planning, utility and energy policy, ballot measure costs, state spending growth, tort liability, and paid family and medical leave. Some amendments were adopted, including a study of utility cost impacts from climate laws, a grid-related funding amendment, a tort liability oversight/reporting amendment, and a workgroup on services for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Others were rejected, including proposals to create a housing task force, cap state spending growth, fund ballot initiative costs, restore local planning grants, and change paid family and medical leave usage rules. Debate on the budget amendments was often partisan and detailed, with supporters arguing for fiscal restraint, cost transparency, and relief for taxpayers and local governments, while opponents emphasized existing work, program solvency, and the need to preserve services. The Senate also heard amendments on zero-based budgeting, federal education tax credit opt-in language, reproductive health funding, food assistance work requirements, and support for the Pediatric Interim Care Center; some were defeated and some were adopted. Roll-call votes were taken on certain amendments, and the transcript ends during consideration of Amendment 0787, which would restore funding for the Pediatric Interim Care Center.

Summary: The House received several Senate messages announcing passage of engrossed or substitute versions of House Bill 2294, House Bill 2472, Senate Bill 606, Substitute Senate Bill 6335, engrossed substitute Senate Bill 6266, and engrossed substitute House Bill 3. The chamber then moved through second and third reading action on a series of measures, with most bills advancing after debate and roll-call votes. A major early item was Senate Concurrent Resolution 8406, which would reauthorize the Joint Select Committee on Civic Health. An amendment to keep the committee at 12 members instead of expanding it to 16 was offered by Representative Walsh but failed. Supporters argued the committee helps build public trust, civility, and collaboration; opponents said it duplicated legislative work and risked becoming a proxy legislature. The resolution then passed 83-10. The House also passed engrossed substitute Senate Bill 6200 on portable cooling devices in rental housing, despite objections that it added burdens on landlords and could create conflict; it passed 65-28. Senate Bill 6084, clarifying the prohibition on voting in more than one state in the same election, passed unanimously 93-0. The House also passed second engrossed substitute Senate Bill 5105, dealing with sexually explicit depictions and child sexual abuse material, with members emphasizing child protection and closing loopholes for altered or AI-generated images; it passed 93-0. Senate Bill 6046, allowing the Civil Air Patrol to be used by the governor in emergencies and for disaster response, passed 88-4 after debate over federal-state authority. Other measures passed included Substitute Senate Bill 6054 on HOA/common-interest community restrictions and wildfire hardening (87-5), Substitute Senate Bill 6091 on real estate broker transparency and access to listing information (92-1), Senate Bill 6291 on on-site wastewater inspection staffing and training timelines (93-0), Substitute Senate Bill 6081 creating a Public Records Act exemption for sex designation information to protect transgender people from doxxing and harassment (57-36), Senate Bill 5963 automatically enrolling certain foster youth, homeless minors, and unaccompanied minors in the Washington College Grant (92-1), Substitute Senate Bill 6226 on audiology scope of practice and clinical autonomy (90-3), Senate Bill 5915 on health technology assessment funding priorities (93-0), Engrossed Senate Bill 6106 on layoff notice and related privacy/tribal-government provisions after a scope ruling struck a seasonal-worker amendment (75-18), and Substitute Senate Bill 6014 on pregnancy accommodation cleanup and public-records handling for complaints, after an amendment to change “individuals” to “pregnant woman” failed (68-25). The House also considered Senate Bill 5820 on Growth Management Act and freight rail issues; multiple amendments sought to preserve freight rail, natural-resource transport, contract rights, and development certainty, but the transcript cuts off before final disposition is shown.

Summary: The House received several Senate messages announcing passage of House Bill 1345, Senate Bill 6297, engrossed substitute Senate Bill 6354, and that the President had signed substitute Senate Bill 5874. The chamber then moved through second reading and final passage of a series of bills, often suspending the rules to advance them to third reading. Senate Bill 6025, described as an update to how fetal age/time of death is dated using more objective modern methods, passed 91-2. Engrossed Senate Bill 5272, dealing with penalties and protections related to sports officials and referees, was amended to restore separate treatment for students and lower penalties back to current law, then passed 92-2 after members described repeated assaults and harassment of referees. Substitute Senate Bill 5938, a foreclosure-related technical fix to the Foreclosure Fairness Act, passed 59-35 despite objections that it continued to impose fees on homeowners. Substitute Senate Bill 6149, which adds Cowlitz County to the rural county designation by setting a population cap, passed 93-1. Substitute Senate Bill 6183, requiring coverage of HIV antiviral medications without prior authorization or step therapy, passed 95-1. Senate Bill 5467, raising the surplus property threshold for water-sewer districts, passed unanimously 94-0. The House then took up substitute Senate Bill 5855, a bill concerning face coverings by law enforcement officers, and spent most of the remainder of the meeting debating a long series of amendments. Supporters of the bill argued it would improve transparency and public trust by limiting face coverings, while opponents and amendment sponsors sought broader exceptions for undercover work, warrants, plain-clothes assignments, religious coverings, health and safety needs, riots/civil unrest, criminal mischief, and other exigent circumstances. Several amendments were adopted, including one allowing religious head or face coverings and another allowing helmet use for transportation; many others were rejected, including proposed intent language and broader waiver/exemption provisions. The Speaker also ruled one proposed amendment outside the scope of the bill title. The transcript ends during debate on Amendment 2139, which would shift safety-rule authority to state labor and industries/DOSH, with opponents raising fiscal and implementation concerns.

Summary: The House considered and passed a series of Senate bills, often after adopting committee amendments and suspending the rules to move bills to third reading. Senate Bill 6188, dealing with Department of Labor and Industries rules related to department-issued identification and asbestos-related worker safety, was amended to clarify that rules should address safety and health hazards; it then passed 61-33. Substitute Senate Bill 5185 created a pilot pathway for certain internationally trained physicians to pursue licensure to help address primary care shortages and passed 89-4. Substitute Senate Bill 5825 authorized the Washington State Leadership Board to solicit private gifts and grants; a transparency amendment failed, and the bill passed 85-8. Second Substitute Senate Bill 6035, aimed at improving voting access for military overseas and tribal communities, passed 57-36 after concerns were raised about an unfunded mandate for county auditors. Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6087, clarifying liability and reuse rules for donated child-related items such as car seats, passed unanimously 93-0. The House also passed Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 5552, which directs the Building Code Council to create codes for kit homes as a way to expand affordable housing, by a 93-0 vote. Senate Bill 6278, which codifies standards and review processes for teacher preparation and alternative route programs, passed 86-7 despite objections that it was unnecessary codification. Substitute Senate Bill 6268, requiring long-term retention of special education records and an online complaint/record system to support families and improve practice, passed unanimously 93-0. Substitute Senate Bill 6237, requiring rental property disclosures about flooding history and flood insurance, passed 65-28 amid debate over added paperwork for housing providers. Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 5937 addressed smart access systems in rental housing, requiring a traditional lock option for tenants who do not want app-based access, and passed 93-1. Substitute Senate Bill 6039 modernized Labor and Industries communications by allowing email notices with an opt-out for paper mail, and passed 94-0. After these votes, the House announced caucus times and went at ease.

Summary: The House received several messages from the Senate announcing passage of engrossed or substitute versions of House Bill 2294, House Bill 2472, Senate Bill 606, Senate Bill 6335, engrossed substitute Senate Bill 6266, and engrossed substitute House Bill 3. The chamber then moved through second and third reading on a series of measures, often suspending the rules to advance bills to final passage. A major floor debate centered on Senate Concurrent Resolution 8406, which would reestablish the Joint Select Committee on Civic Health and expand its membership. Amendment 2131, offered to keep the committee at its current size rather than expanding it, was rejected after debate over fiscal restraint, committee scope, and whether the body functioned like a “proxy legislature.” The resolution then passed 83-10. The House also passed engrossed substitute Senate Bill 6200 on portable cooling devices for renters and mobile home occupants, Senate Bill 6084 on clarifying the prohibition on voting in more than one election, second engrossed substitute Senate Bill 5105 on sexually explicit depictions involving minors, and Senate Bill 6046 authorizing the Civil Air Patrol to be used by the governor in emergencies; each drew debate over policy scope, enforcement, and state-federal authority, but all ultimately passed. The House next passed substitute Senate Bill 6054, limiting HOA and common-interest community restrictions that conflict with wildfire-hardening measures; substitute Senate Bill 6091, requiring greater transparency in real estate broker practices; Senate Bill 6291, giving more time to train and certify on-site wastewater inspectors; substitute Senate Bill 6081, creating a Public Records Act exemption for sex designation information to protect transgender people from doxxing and harassment; Senate Bill 5963, automatically enrolling certain vulnerable students in the Washington College Grant; and substitute Senate Bill 6226, addressing audiology scope-of-practice and telemedicine concerns. Most of these bills passed with broad bipartisan support, though some drew dissent over added regulation, privacy, or scope-of-practice issues. The final portion of the transcript focused on Senate Bill 6106, which the Speaker ruled had an out-of-scope amendment related to agricultural seasonal workers; the bill itself passed 75-18 after debate over layoff notices and tribal sovereignty. Substitute Senate Bill 6014, dealing with pregnancy accommodations and related public records issues, saw a failed amendment to replace gender-neutral language with “pregnant woman” and then passed 68-25. The House also debated Senate Bill 5820, with multiple amendments concerning freight rail, greenhouse gas calculations, county planning, property rights, and rail safety; the excerpt ends amid that amendment debate before final action on the bill is shown.

Summary: The House approved the prior day’s minutes without objection and adopted a series of resolutions honoring individuals, organizations, and observances, including Dean Brazel, Shadley Van Skulkwake, the Seattle Seahawks, Every Child Matters Day, several doctors and officials, economic ties with Mexico and Canada, the 250th anniversary of the United States, and the 50th anniversary of the Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. The chamber received messages from the Senate announcing passage of Substitute House Bill 2230, Substitute Senate Bill 5647, and engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 61, and also noted that the President had signed a second engrossed House bill. The House then agreed to first-reading referral of bills and resolutions on the introduction sheet, with one exception: Substitute Senate Bill 6003 was suspended from the rules and placed on the second reading calendar. Later, the House referred bills listed in committee reports to the designated committees and relieved the Rules Committee of Second Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 5107 and Substitute Senate Bill 6226, placing them on the second reading calendar. No recorded votes occurred, and the House adjourned until 9:00 a.m. Tuesday, March 3.

Summary: The Senate opened with roll call, the Pledge of Allegiance, and a prayer, then approved the previous day’s journal and moved through gubernatorial appointments. Acacia Engram was confirmed to the Evergreen State College Board of Trustees, Ashland J. Tibbet to the Western Washington University Board of Trustees, David S. Frockt to the Western Washington University Board of Trustees, and Christine Rolfes to the Olympic College Board of Trustees, each with strong floor support and unanimous or near-unanimous votes. Senator Warnick also offered a personal tribute to a Colfax basketball coach who recently died of pancreatic cancer, and the Senate briefly recessed for caucus and lunch. The chamber then passed several bills dealing with transportation, health care, housing, and education. These included Substitute House Bill 2199 on derelict vessels; House Bill 2113 on supervision of radiologic technologists; Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2532 banning retail sales of nitrous oxide for misuse; House Bills 2531 and 2540 on ambulance/rural transport fees and EMT recertification; Second Substitute House Bill 1859 expanding affordable housing on religious property; Substitute House Bill 2151 adopting national standards for factory-built housing; Engrossed House Bill 1687 on social housing public development authorities; and Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2534 to improve educational stability for military children. Most passed overwhelmingly, though HB 1859 drew one no vote and HB 1687 passed after debate over whether the bill should be limited to Seattle’s existing social housing authority. The Senate also considered more contentious election and energy measures. Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1750, updating the Washington Voting Rights Act to address voter suppression and dilution claims, drew several failed amendments from Senators Fortunato and Wilson seeking higher evidentiary standards and narrower definitions; the bill ultimately passed 30-19. House Bill 2367, which removes preferential treatment related to coal-fired electric utilities, also passed after a failed amendment to preserve certain emissions-related allowances. House Bill 2606, concerning performance measures and reporting for the Office of Privacy and Data Protection, passed unanimously and was described as a government efficiency and AI-related measure. The Senate also passed House Bill 2360 on stock albuterol in schools after adopting an amendment requiring parents to be notified when albuterol is administered. Later, the Senate debated Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2320 on firearm manufacturing files used with 3D printers and CNC milling machines. Several amendments were offered: one to narrow the device language failed, one protecting bona fide gunsmiths and licensed dealers was adopted, and another was withdrawn. The underlying bill was then advanced toward final passage, with supporters saying it updates ghost-gun laws to keep pace with technology and opponents raising concerns about overbreadth and impacts on legitimate uses of 3D printing.

Summary: The Consumer Protection & Business Committee opened with a public hearing on House Bill 2616, described as a broad “state farm bill” framework covering agriculture, food security, labor, environmental exemptions, grants, studies, and cannabis licensing. Staff outlined provisions including state purchasing of Washington-grown food, temporary packaging and refrigerant exemptions, changes to Climate Commitment Act agricultural fuel treatment, an exception to mass layoff notice rules for agricultural and dairy workers, grant programs for equipment retrofits and crop residue alternatives, several studies on tax incentives, market access, workforce development, and overtime impacts, and a transfer of cannabis production, processing, and testing oversight to the Department of Agriculture. Representative Reeves said the bill was intended to start a state-level conversation about supporting farms as small businesses, citing farm losses, food security concerns, and farmer mental health, and said the bill would not move this session but would be developed further over the summer for a 2027 return. Testimony on HB 2616 was overwhelmingly supportive, with 366 pro and 75 con sign-ins. Supporters from the Tree Fruit Association, potato, onion, wheat, dairy, organic orchard, asparagus, and agricultural cooperative sectors said Washington farmers face low margins, high regulatory and labor costs, refrigeration and processing challenges, and international competition. Several speakers emphasized the need to avoid further harm to farms, preserve local processing and markets, and use state research and incentives to keep family farms viable. Committee members asked about stakeholder outreach, the role of Washington State University, the impact of federal versus state policy, and possible ways to help small farms navigate compliance and market access. The committee then opened a hearing on House Bill 2721, which would create registration and regulation for commercial interior designers and rename the State Board of Architects to include registered commercial interior designers. Staff explained that the bill would establish education, examination, registration, seal, and enforcement requirements, create a license account, and exempt certain work such as residential structures, farm buildings, and small buildings up to 4,000 square feet. Proponents from interior design organizations said the bill reflects national model law standards, has been developed in collaboration with architects, and would recognize qualified designers already doing code-related work on public buildings, health care facilities, schools, and workplaces. They argued it would improve clarity, public safety, and business opportunities, especially for women-owned small firms. The chair noted the bill would not move this year and closed the hearing after taking limited testimony and member questions about scope, diversity, and the practical effects of delaying enactment.

Summary: The Senate opened with ceremonial business, approved the previous day’s journal, and adopted Senate Resolution 8680 recognizing Ramadan. Senator Trudeau spoke in support of the resolution, emphasizing charity, self-reflection, restraint, and inclusion of Muslim Washingtonians. The chamber also heard a point of personal privilege thanking members who helped committees function during illness-related absences, then recessed for caucuses and later resumed business. The Senate handled several procedural referrals and then took up House Bill 2304 on condominium warranty coverage, which passed 47-0 after supporters said it would help increase condo construction and homeownership opportunities. Substitute House Bill 2492, requiring behavioral health and wellness training in construction apprenticeships, also passed, with supporters citing suicide prevention and workplace safety. The chamber then considered Substitute House Bill 2355, the Domestic Worker Bill of Rights, where multiple amendments were offered to narrow coverage, raise hourly thresholds, or remove the private right of action; all of those amendments failed, and the bill ultimately passed 28-20 after supporters argued it would provide basic labor protections and opponents warned it would burden families and independent contractors. The Senate also passed Substitute House Bill 2228 directing the Building Code Council to study and recommend rules for scissors stairs as a housing-efficiency measure, Second Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1541 revising the Veterans Affairs Advisory Committee to add more military and veteran experience, House Bill 2155 limiting nursing titles to human beings in response to AI concerns, Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2242 on preventive services and state authority over related guidance, Substitute House Bill 2269 expanding middle housing options in unincorporated areas with septic systems, and Engrossed House Bill 1501 as amended, which sets rules for homeowner association and common-interest community communications. Most of these measures passed on strong bipartisan votes, though HB 1501 passed 33-15 after some members questioned its practical effect. The Senate then adjourned until the next morning.

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 Ways and Means Committee met in executive session on March 2, 2026, and took up two large groups of bills. In the first group, members heard briefings on measures dealing with state accounts, immigrant worker protections, Washington Voting Rights Act compliance, AI content provenance notices, an AI grant program, public official security, civil service coverage for WOTEC officers, JLARC work plans, LEOFF Plan 1 termination and restatement, supplemental retirement bargaining, PERS membership for certain port workers, local government tax flexibility, wildfire mitigation financing, timberland tax treatment, and related fiscal notes and amendments. In the second group, the committee heard bills on affordable housing tax remittance, alternative jet fuel incentives, renewable energy tax incentives and grants, nonprofit property tax exemptions, food bank and school sales tax exemptions, behavioral health staffing tax relief, children and youth behavioral health, Working Connections Child Care, language access guidelines, unpaid wage recovery, firearms background check fees, public employer information-sharing, and Office of Independent Investigations jurisdiction. The committee then voted on the bills and several amendments. It adopted amendments to HB 2675, HB 2105, HB 1710, HB 1170, HB 233, HB 2034, HB 1069, HB 2179, HB 2442, HB 1960, HB 6351, HB 6353, HB 2091, and HB 2508, while rejecting several other proposed amendments, including multiple changes to the immigrant worker, voting rights, and LEOFF bills. Members debated issues such as employer notice timing and private rights of action in the immigrant worker bill, the scope and enforcement of the voting rights preclearance bill, AI content regulation and exemptions for governments and video games, and the structure and fiscal effects of the LEOFF Plan 1 restatement, including a proposed transfer to the Climate Commitment Act and local government medical cost responsibilities. In the first group, the committee gave due pass recommendations to HB 2675, HB 2105, HB 1710, HB 1170, HB 233, HB 2249, HB 2120, HB 2034, HB 1069, HB 2179, HB 2442, HB 2089, and HB 1983, all subject to signatures. In the second group, it advanced HB 1717, HB 1960, HB 2431, SB 606, HB 2451, SB 6297, SB 6351, HB 2429, SB 6353, HB 2475, HB 2479, HB 2521, HB 2091, and HB 2508, also subject to signatures. The committee also received briefings on additional Group 3 bills, including low-income energy assistance, cap-and-invest fuel compliance, food security, aviation insurance for wildland fire response, waste-to-energy allowances, and other climate- and agriculture-related measures, but the transcript ends before final action on that group.

Summary: The House took up and passed Second Substitute Senate Bill 5292, which modifies the paid family and medical leave program. Supporters said the bill uses an actuarial model to set rates and establishes a four-month reserve to improve program stability. The bill advanced to third reading without amendments and passed 95-1. The House then considered Substitute Senate Bill 5841, related to completion of course and financial aid information. The House adopted Amendment 2140, which adds a financial aid calculator and requires follow-up when students indicate they have completed a financial aid form in their high school and beyond plan. After that amendment and the Education Committee amendment were adopted, the bill passed 92-4. Members supporting it said it would help students understand and access financial aid, while one opponent argued schools should not be inserted into family FAFSA decisions. The most extensive debate was on Engrossed Second Substitute Senate Bill 5981, concerning the 340B drug pricing program and contract pharmacies. Numerous amendments were offered to limit the program’s expansion, direct more revenue to patient care or low-income patients, restrict contract pharmacies, add reporting, delay implementation pending court cases, or narrow participation by hospitals and PBMs; most were rejected, and one amendment was ruled beyond the scope of the bill. Supporters of the bill argued it would help safety-net providers, rural hospitals, and FQHCs, while opponents warned it would mainly benefit large hospital systems, create administrative burdens, and likely face litigation. The House adopted the Health Care and Wellness Committee amendment and then passed the bill 67-30. After those actions, the House received messages from the Senate, including passage of Second Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1210 and the Governor’s signing of Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 252. The chamber then moved to House Bill 2487, a tax bill, where several amendments were withdrawn and additional amendments were debated, including one clarifying the definition of taxpayers and another creating a three-year repayment schedule and changes to the advanced computing surcharge.

Summary: The House received messages that the Senate had passed House Bills 2104 and 19883, and that the President had signed Substitute House Bill 1570. It also referred committee reports without objection. A motion to relieve the Rules Committee of Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6346 and Engrossed Senate Bill 6347 failed on a 48-38 vote after debate over the bills’ fiscal impact and constitutionality. The House then took up Engrossed Senate Bill 6246, dealing with emissions-intensive trade-exposed industries and the Climate Commitment Act. Several amendments were offered, including proposals to permanently exempt these industries or to limit Ecology’s authority over closed facilities, but those amendments were rejected. A striking amendment that reflected stakeholder negotiations and added reporting and other changes was adopted 56-31, and the bill then passed 57-38. The House also passed Engrossed Senate Bill 5068, narrowing the bill to certain corrections officers and deputy prosecutors and aligning state hiring rules with federal work authorization; it passed 62-33. Engrossed Second Substitute Senate Bill 5847, concerning access to medical care and workers’ compensation, drew extensive amendment debate. The House adopted amendments creating a 25-mile provider-access standard, adding quarterly reporting to the Workers’ Comp Advisory Committee, and other changes, while rejecting a pilot-project amendment and a self-insurance amendment; a point of order was sustained against an amendment on legislative privilege as outside the bill’s scope. The bill then passed 67-28. The House also passed Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6194, which allows higher reimbursement for Astria Toppenish Hospital, and Senate Bill 6132, which supports rail funding for the Port of Moses Lake; both passed unanimously. Later, the House passed Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6113, a technical tax-law correction bill, by 92-4; Substitute Senate Bill 5520, creating a compensation process for the wrongly convicted, by 72-23 after rejecting a stricter “actual innocence” amendment; Engrossed Substitute Senate Bill 6162, reforming property tax exemptions for seniors, disabled persons, veterans, and some small businesses, by 93-2; and Senate Bill 6137, allowing in-state collegiate sports wagering with added athlete-protection provisions, by the required three-fifths margin of 70-26. The House then began consideration of additional bills, including Second Substitute Senate Bill 5880 on toxicology testing, with debate starting on an amendment to address discovery and subpoena requests.

Summary: The House was called to order, the roll was taken, and a quorum was announced present. The chamber then escorted the flags, recited the Pledge of Allegiance, and heard an opening prayer focused on righteousness, revival, and guidance for the legislative body. The minutes of the previous day were approved without objection. After routine announcements, Representative Cortes stated that the Democrats would caucus immediately, and Representative Barto said the Republicans would caucus in five minutes. The House then went at ease for caucus. No bills, motions, or votes on legislation were taken in this segment.
