2nd Spec Sess Day 25: House D’s to unveil new budget

OLYMPIA -- With six days left in the second special session and after weeks of secret budget negotiations, House Democrats will release their latest budget proposal and some legislation that goes with it late this morning and hold a public hearing in the Appropriations Committee at 3 p.m.

They've also scheduled a committee vote for tomorrow, which would suggest a floor vote in the full House as early as Wednesday. Plenty of time to pass a budget before the clock runs out on the second special session at midnight Saturday.

The latest version of HB 1106 should be available online by 11:30 a.m. Until that time, you'll be looking at the version they released on June 1.
