Show Notes
Washingtons legislature races towards session end, with key deadlines knocking bills out of committees. Measures missing cutoffs are mostly done for the year. This week brings floor debates and votes, with everything needing approval by Friday. Lawmakers face dozens of proposals, three budgets, and talks on taxing million-dollar earners, all due by March twelfth. Supporters of stalled bills speak out, with AARP slamming the House for killing crypto kiosk protections and the insurance commissioner calling failed wildfire reforms troubling. Several high-profile ideas didnt survive, including harsher penalties for polluting crimes and tougher fines for ignoring flood barriers. Expect more action as the sprint continues, with lawmakers prioritizing essentials amid the crunch.
