Show Notes

Governor Bob Ferguson is set to sign Senate Bill fifty-nine sixty-three, expanding eligibility for the Washington College Grant. This bill, sponsored by Senator Twana Nobles, automatically qualifies more youth whove experienced homelessness or foster care for aid toward college, technical training, or apprenticeships. The bill ties directly to the Passport to Careers program, which provides tuition help, living expenses, and career guidance. With strong bipartisan support, the bill cuts red tape for kids facing hurdles in pursuing education, taking effect for the twenty twenty-six twenty-seven school year.
