Summary: The Housing Committee met in executive session on two bills. On Substitute House Bill 2266, the committee reviewed a proposed substitute for the step housing bill and several amendments. The substitute would set different siting rules for transitional housing, permanent supportive housing, emergency shelters, and emergency housing; allow some local prohibitions in critical areas and certain resource lands; streamline local variance approvals; require local governments to update regulations within two years or at the next comprehensive plan update; and grandfather existing step housing. Members discussed amendments addressing school and daycare setbacks, form-based codes, operational safety requirements, timing of checklist items, local reporting/auditing requirements, and preemption of conflicting local rules. Several amendments were adopted, including the form-based code, timing/clarity, and preemption amendments, while others were rejected. The bill then passed out of committee on a 10-7 vote with a do pass recommendation. The committee then took up Substitute House Bill 2489, which would prohibit local governments from enforcing laws that criminalize or penalize life-sustaining activities on public property unless adequate alternative shelter space is available. The proposed substitute clarified that the bill would not limit state criminal laws, added exceptions for imminent risk, obstruction, and disability access issues, allowed local policies for documenting shelter availability and outreach, expanded the definition of adequate shelter space to include regional interlocal agreements, and narrowed the definition of life-sustaining activities. Amendments were considered on park facilities where children are likely to be present, weapons screening and possession in shelters, and portable mats or beds in drop-in shelters; the park-facility and weapons amendments were withdrawn or rejected, while the portable mat/bed amendment was adopted. After debate over public safety, homelessness, and local control, the committee approved the bill on a 9-8 vote with a do pass recommendation and adjourned for the week.

Summary: The House Housing Committee heard a work session on federal Continuum of Care funding and state shelter siting rules before moving to public hearings on House Bills 2266 and 2489. Ted Kelleher of the Department of Commerce said HUD’s late and restrictive 2025 Continuum of Care notice threatened roughly $120 million a year in Washington for existing permanent supportive housing and shelter operations, but a multistate lawsuit led by the Washington Attorney General has forced HUD to begin renewing funding. Dave Anderson of Commerce then reviewed state step-housing implementation, explaining the legal framework for siting shelters and supportive housing, the model ordinance and guidance Commerce developed, and ongoing plan reviews and hearings board cases involving local compliance. House Bill 2266 would require cities and counties to allow step housing in all nonindustrial zones, limit local standards and permitting to those applied to comparable residential uses, require administrative rather than discretionary design review, remove an exception for existing buildings, and restrict conditions on affordable housing program participation. The bill sponsor and supporters from Plymouth Housing, Disability Rights Washington, King County, Catholic Community Services, and the Attorney General’s Office said local barriers, inconsistent zoning, and discretionary approvals delay or block needed housing and can violate civil rights laws. City officials and the Association of Washington Cities opposed the bill as drafted, arguing it goes too far by limiting operational agreements, spacing rules, and local safety tools, and by treating different housing types too uniformly; several asked for amendments to preserve local authority over operations and community protections. The committee then heard House Bill 2489, the “Shelters Not Penalties Act,” which would bar local governments from enforcing public-space laws against life-sustaining activities unless adequate alternative shelter space is available. The bill defines adequate shelter broadly, including accessibility, no-cost access, accommodation for disabilities, pets, partners, family members, and possessions, and it creates a defense and private right of action against enforcement. Supporters including the ACLU of Washington, Interfaith Works, and the bill sponsor argued that anti-camping enforcement displaces people without solving homelessness, wastes public resources, and should be tied to real shelter availability. Early questions focused on how the bill would apply to parks and other public property, what counts as adequate shelter, and whether bad-faith camping would be affected; testimony continued with additional supporters as the hearing proceeded.

Summary: The committee heard and advanced several measures related to health care, public health, and patient protections. House Concurrent Resolution 148, urging a statewide educational strategy on menopause, was presented as a workplace awareness measure and received supportive comments from members before being released. Senate Bill 274, updating Delaware’s MOST program to POLST and clarifying capacity determinations and documentation for end-of-life orders, also drew supportive testimony from medical and nursing groups and was released. House Bill 458, limiting local backflow preventer requirements for certain low-hazard buildings, was presented as a cost-relief measure for homeowners and small businesses; DHSS expressed concerns but said it was willing to work on amendments and a sunset provision, and the bill was released. Senate Joint Resolution 18, designating August 31, 2026 as International Overdose Awareness Day and ordering flags at half-staff, was released after brief supportive remarks. The committee then considered Senate Bill 339, a technical correction to the advance health care directive form clarifying that an agent’s authority for voluntary mental health admission cannot exceed 72 hours, consistent with existing law. Members asked detailed questions about how the 72-hour limit works and whether it applies to voluntary directives; the sponsor and a Disability Rights Delaware witness explained that the bill only aligns the form with current statute and does not expand authority. The bill was released. House Bill 301, requiring hospitals to create discharge plans for pregnant patients discharged while showing signs of labor, prompted extensive discussion. The sponsor and supporters said it would improve safety, transportation planning, and aftercare, while some members noted Delaware hospitals already do much of this work and questioned whether codifying it was necessary; supporters emphasized maternal mortality disparities and the need for guardrails. The bill was released. Senate Bill 196, creating ownership disclosure requirements for long-term care facilities and resident notice rules after ownership transfers, was presented as a transparency measure for seniors and families and was released after supportive testimony from the Delaware Nurses Association and elder-care advocates. Senate Bill 320, expanding pharmacists’ independent prescriptive authority for certain non-controlled medications and allowing opioid use disorder medications under standing order, with added malpractice reporting requirements in Senate Amendment 2, was supported by pharmacists and nurse practitioners as an access-to-care measure and was released. Senate Substitute 1 for Senate Bill 161, establishing a unified licensing and oversight framework for adult behavioral health providers under DSAM, was presented as a patient-protection measure; providers supported the goal but cautioned that regulations must be workable, and the substitute was released. Senate Joint Resolution 19, directing DHSS to study strategies to reduce health care costs, was released with a note reflecting concerns about broadening the analysis to include additional cost drivers and alternatives. Finally, Senate Bill 249 with Senate Amendment 2, modernizing harm-reduction programs and paraphernalia laws, generated the most extended debate: supporters framed it as life-saving public health policy, while opponents raised concerns about needle litter, community impacts, and whether the approach facilitates addiction. Despite the objections, the bill was released.

Summary: The Senate Health and Human Services Committee met to consider several House bills, beginning with a series of sunset extensions for professional licensing and review boards. House Bill 3000 extended the State Board of Cosmetology and Barbering to 2031 after brief questions about prior executive-branch efforts to improve board transparency; House Bill 3001 extended the Child Death Review Board to 2031; House Bill 3003 extended the Board of Chiropractic Examiners to 2031; and House Bill 3004 extended the Board of Examiners in Optometry to 2031. Each of these bills advanced on unanimous 9-0 votes. The committee also advanced House Bill 366, which creates a revolving fund at the Health Care Workforce Training Commission to receive rural health transformation funds. Members asked about the timing and distribution of the funds, but no timeline was available. House Bill 3904 changed prenatal delivery and postpartum services from a global payment model to individualized payments, with supporters saying it would improve access to local and rural prenatal care and could help hospitals qualify for birth-friendly designations and related funding. That bill also passed 9-0. Two health-related policy bills were amended in committee and advanced. House Bill 3644, the Blake Burgess Act, requires certain hospitals to adopt policies to prevent venous thromboembolism; members asked whether the required report would be public, and the author said that was the intent. House Bill 1687, the Uniform Health Care Decisions Act, replaces older advance directive and health care agent laws with a single framework for end-of-life decision-making, with committee substitute changes adding safeguards and clarifying surrogate authority. House Bill 3920 created a sales tax exemption for LifeShare Network, matching an exemption already given to the Oklahoma Blood Institute, and it also passed after supportive testimony. All measures considered were reported out favorably, and the committee adjourned after announcing it would meet again the following week.

Summary: The Senate convened, established a quorum, and opened with prayer. The chamber then recognized several guests and groups, including the Doctor of the Day Dr. Abby Woods, Nurse of the Day Kara de la Pena, and multiple student and community delegations. These included Dominic Matthias of Moore High School for his cross-country accomplishments, Calumet boys baseball and basketball teams for state championships, the Oklahoma Federation of Republican Women, Morris High School’s academic team, the Junior Chamber of Catoosa, Rogers County Leadership Program participants, and Legacy Christian Schools students. The Senate adopted Senate Resolution 40, designating the second week in April as Lung Cancer Action Week in Oklahoma. The resolution was presented in support of the American Lung Association’s efforts to raise awareness, encourage screening, and promote early detection, especially given the low screening rate among high-risk Oklahomans. The resolution passed without opposition, and unanimous consent was granted to make all senators co-authors unless they declined. The chamber also hosted Cherokee Nation Legislative Day. Principal Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr. and other Cherokee leaders spoke about the tribe’s history, sovereignty, and major investments in education, housing, health care, workforce development, and economic growth in Oklahoma. Hoskin emphasized the Cherokee Nation’s partnership with the state and urged support for Medicaid expansion, arguing it helps fund health care services and jobs. Later, Senator Weaver offered a personal privilege statement mourning the death of Trooper Vernon Brake in the line of duty, followed by a moment of silence. The only other action was an announcement inviting members to a Sportsman’s Caucus reception. With the clerk’s desk clear, the Senate adopted a motion to adjourn until Thursday, April 9, 2026, at 9:30 a.m.

Summary: The joint committees on Energy and Environmental Protection and Water and Land heard testimony on House Bill 21101, which would ban or otherwise end commercial aquarium collection. Chairs opened the hearing with a short time limit for testimony and noted they would move to decision-making before the next committee meeting. The Department of Land and Natural Resources said it appreciated the bill’s intent and stood on written testimony, while the Office of Hawaiian Affairs strongly supported the measure as part of its legislative package, citing community calls to ban the practice. Many other organizations and individuals also testified in support, including environmental, Native Hawaiian, and community groups, with arguments focused on reef protection, public trust, cultural concerns, and the view that the trade is extractive and not sustainable. Supporters repeatedly cited declines in yellow tang and other reef fish, especially on West Hawaii and Oahu, and argued that reef recovery has not occurred where collection pressure existed. Several testified that legal aquarium collection has not occurred in West Hawaii since 2017 or on Oahu since 2021, and that the state should not reopen an industry that has been effectively shut down for years. Others said the program is fiscally inefficient because permits generate little revenue compared with the cost of administering and enforcing the program, and that aquaculture or other alternatives could provide jobs without removing wild fish. Native Hawaiian speakers and civic club representatives emphasized traditional and customary practices, community stewardship, and the need to protect resources for future generations. Opposition testimony came from aquarium fishers and related advocates who argued the fishery has been shown sustainable, that the EIS process was completed, and that the bill would unfairly target one user group over another. They said the trade provides livelihoods for local families, that management is solid, and that the legislature should not ban a fishery after requiring compliance with environmental review. Some opponents also argued that fish populations have increased in recent years and that the issue reflects broader user conflict rather than science. No vote or final committee action was taken during the portion of the hearing provided; the chair continued taking testimony, including on Zoom, as time allowed.

Summary: The Senate Higher Education and Workforce Development Committee heard a work session on FAFSA and college access from the Washington Student Achievement Council. Staff described the Washington Completes FAFSA campaign created by Executive Order 2508, the advisory board guiding it, and efforts to modernize outreach through data tracking, trusted messengers, school partnerships, and tools like a completion dashboard and Otterbot texting service. WASAC reported a 35% year-over-year increase in FAFSA/WASFA completions, said it was about two-thirds of the way to its statewide completion goal, and discussed persistent equity gaps by free/reduced-price lunch status and race/ethnicity. Members also heard about the Changing the Narrative report and College Toolkit, which emphasize multiple postsecondary pathways, relatable messengers, and short video content. The committee then received a presentation on student support services at public baccalaureate institutions. The Council of Presidents said retention remains strong overall but varies by demographics and that FERPA limits parent access once students enroll, making campus support systems especially important. Speakers from Evergreen State College and Central Washington University described retention and success efforts such as the Shelton Promise program, basic-needs support, summer bridge, peer mentoring, text outreach, early academic alerts, embedded advising, and cross-trained student service centers. Both institutions said budget cuts are reducing advising, tutoring, wellness, and other student supports, which could affect persistence and completion. The committee also held a public hearing on gubernatorial appointments. Latasha Wortham testified in support of her reappointment to the Tacoma Community College Board of Trustees, and a panel of student appointees testified about their roles on various boards and councils, emphasizing student voice, equity, and access. In executive session, the committee adopted a proposed substitute for Senate Bill 6325 and voted it do pass to the Ways and Means Committee. The committee then recommended confirmation for gubernatorial appointments 9286, 9289, 9290, 9292, 9293, 9302, 9309, 9311, and 9312 before adjourning.
