Show Notes

Governor Bob Ferguson signs a stack of new bills into law, marking a successful legislative session in Washington. Key investments in housing and infrastructure, along with a new tax on high-income earners, are highlighted. Washingtonians can expect changes such as easier access to abortion medications, bans on workplace microchipping, and expanded housing options. Families benefit from pre-kindergarten promise accounts and aid for surviving spouses of fallen first responders. Other laws update military justice protections, promote tribal fishing rights, and streamline state hiring. Health updates include HIV drug coverage and cannabis use in care facilities. These steps aim to modernize rules, cut barriers, and improve daily life across the state.
