WA Lege Day 50: Lots of floor action

OLYMPIA — Both chambers will be voting today on legislation that managed to make it through committees.

The House started powering though relatively non-controversial bills shortly after 10 a.m., and the Senate followed soon afterward with a resolution recognizing the YMCA. (Random side comment: How hard can it be to recognize? It’s usually a big building with a Y on it, you can’t miss it…the Village People have a song about it.)

In any case, we’ll be monitoring floor action throughout the day.

Elsewhere around the Capitol, it is Reproductive Rights Lobby Day, with a rally planned on the north steps of the building. The state’s school administrators and school directors are lobbying their legislators.
