2011 Legislative Session

Days 6 and 7 - We don't have any Committee meetings, hearing or floor sessions this weekend. Molly and Tiffany are coming over this morning for the weekend ... yea! Rep. Ross and I are working on a B-I-G huge issue right now, which I am researching right now.

2011 Legislative Session

Day 5 - After 2+ sessions it still amazes me how little gets done in Olympia until the last few days. Pay attention to the next couple of weeks, there should be some great bills dropped that will cause the "other side" to lose the minds.

Day 4 - Another day, another set of meetings. So far, the session has been very low key. The Committees I sit on have been focused on work sessions and not legislation ... not necessarily a bad thing. Issues should heat up next week, but we'll see.

Day 3 - It was a busy, but remarkably productive day. I finalized a couple of more bills for introduction and met with a lot of different people. Three more Committee meetings, the first at 8:00 AM and the last ending at 8:00 PM, and the State of the Judiciary made for a long day. We'll start getting into the meat of issues next week.

Day 2 - Another busy day. The Governor gave her State of the State address today. She hit on a lot of Republican talking points and sounded like she will be willing to consider our ideas this year. The proof will come later this session, so we'll see. Tomorrow ... more meetings! I've got several bills introduced and am waiting for hearing dates.

Post from davidtaylor at CHUM.LY

Greetings friends. It's been a while since I last posted ... my apologies, but times are busy. I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and a wonderful New Year celebration. As you probably know, I'll be headed out Saturday or Sunday for the 2011 Legislative Session. Yesterday (Monday) we received our committee assignments and I will be serving on the Environmental (formerly Ecology and Parks) Committee, the Labor and Workforce Development (formerly portions of the Commerce and Labor) Committee and General Government Appropriations and Oversight Committee. I will also be serving as the Ranking Republican on the State Government and Tribal Affairs Committee, which I am very excited about.

Once the 2011 Session begins, I'll do my best to post a daily summaries of whats happening in Olympia. It looks like it will be a long and difficult session, but I believe we have an opportunity to change the way government operates and return to the Priorities of Government.
