WA Lege Day 55: Senate tax vote coming

OLYMPIA -- The Lege is working Saturday, and likely Sunday, as the clock ticks down to a scheduled adjournment on Thursday.

Senate Democrats just placed their tax package on the calendar for a vote sometime today, which suggests they have the 25 votes necessary to pass it.

Before that, however, they have scheduled a vote on the latest version of new laws governing driving while cell-phoning, and several other bills.

Stay tuned.
