The House Public Safety Committee passed House Bill 1771, an act protecting the citizens of Washington from warrantless surveillance through the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones), by a 9-1 vote. If you get a minute, please send Rep. Roger Goodman an email thanking him for hearing the bill and moving it out of committee.

2012 Regular Legislative Session Day 11 Continued
I can honestly say I witnessed something today that I have never seen before. HB 2225, establishing July 25th as Patient Safety Day, was defeated through a 5-4 vote with two Democrats voting with us against the bill. Absolutely amazing to watch the rest of the Democrats attempt to sway their members to pass the bill. Victory!
Sitting in General Government Appropriations and Oversight now, listening to a presentation from the Columbia Gorge Commission. I am of the opinion the Gorge Commission is an unconstitutional decision making body that should be abolished. It’s time to return all land use decision making authority to the locally elected officials.
I have a 2:30 meeting today with the Republican Caucus of the Environment Committee. Rep. Matt Shea was recently added to the Environment Committee, which adds another pro-property rights member to the Committee. Let the fun begin!

2011 First Special Legislative Session
Day 30 Update 2 - Well we're still here. After a flurry of activity this morning ... passage of 5 bills before lunch ... we're finally back at work debating bill #6 for the day.
It often goes unnoticed, not reported or otherwise outside of the public's eye, but I want everyone to know how hard the House Republican Caucus worked this year. When the other three caucuses were willing to negotiate their various interests away, it was my Caucus that held the line. We stayed united throughout the process, which gave our negotiators the power they needed to negotiate in the best interest of the people of Washington. When none of the other three Caucuses wanted to release a proposed budget to the public, it was my Caucus that proposed a budget that prioritized spending to K-12 education, public health and public safety and didn't rely on onetime funding or budget gimmics to balance. I can't express how proud I am of these folks or how honored I am to be a small part of this team.
We've been on the House Floor almost 22 out of the last 31 hours and we're all getting tired. Never fear, we will fight until the very end.
