June 6th - 2013 First Special Session Day 25

Here we are on Day 25 of the First Special Legislative Session and we’re finally running bills. With the exception of the one bill we ran last Thursday (May 30th) these are the first bills we’ve run all Special Session.

Engrossed Substitute House Bill 1947 passed 68 to 25 with 4 excused.
Substitute House Bill 1961 passed 87 to 6 with 4 excused.
House Bill 2042 passed 84 to 9 with 4 excused.
Second Engrossed Substitute House Bill 2016 passed 71 to 22 with 4 excused.
Engrossed Second Substitute House Bill 1971 passed 74 to 18 with 5 excused.
Engrossed House Bill 2036 passed 52 to 35 with 10 excused.
House Bill 2068 passed 79 to 9 with 9 excused.
Substitute House Bill 2069 passed 83 to 5 with 9 excused.
Substitute House Bill 1057 passed 53 to 35 with 9 excused.
Engrossed House Bill 2034 passed 52 to 40 with 5 excused.

After a long 13 plus hour day on the House Floor, we managed to pass a total of ten bills and I voted"no” on all of them. In summary, the House passed tax increases, extended assessments, further implemented Obamacare, increased court fees, shifted state tax dollars to federal dollars, and passed another operating budget … not a great day for the taxpayers of Washington.
