Today marks day 33 of session, meaning we are more than halfway through this short, 60-day session. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Right now, legislators are \u201con the floor\u201d debating bills in the full House and full Senate. All bills must be passed out of their chamber of origin (i.e. Senate bills must be voted out of the Senate, and House bills must be voted out of the Senate) by next Tuesday, February 13 at 5pm. We also anticipate the House & Senate to release their budget proposals within the next two weeks.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Successful Day of Action<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Thank you to everyone who joined us to take action in support of Ninth Grade Success! While the bills we were supporting (HB 2053 and SB 5408) died this week, we have been focused on securing a budget proviso. Your action yesterday to contact your lawmaker came at a perfect time to influence the budget proposals (if you haven\u2019t emailed your lawmaker yet, there\u2019s still time!<\/a>) Liz & Kia were in Olympia with our lobbyist, amplifying your voices and messages to lawmakers.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
