2011 Legislative Session

Day 47 - Today was a interesting day, but not a lot happened on the House Floor. Tomorrow should be much better as far as debate goes. The majority party appear rot be holding back all controversial bills for tomorrow or Sunday (assuming we work on Sunday). Unfortunately, I'm going to miss the Friends of the NRA diner tomorrow night in Yakima. That really sucks since I love going to that diner.

We have several bills moving through the process right now, but not a whole lot of Republican bills. It looks like our State Meat Inspection bill is dead again this year, but we'll see. We introduced HB 2004 earlier this week to require all Tribal vehicles be licensed by WA State ... this is all about protecting public health and safety, so we'll see how that works out. I also found out one of our wolf bills will receive a hearing on March 8th at 8:00 am. HB 1109 requires Legislative approval before finalizing the conservation and management plan. Make sure and let people know about this hearing and plan on attending if you're available. This is a huge issue for Washington State and our voices must be heard.
