OLYMPIA — On Monday, two dozen lawmakers who represent Snohomish County will make their way to the state Capitol for the beginning of the 60-day legislative session.
In that time, they will advocate for bills in hopes of bringing them to Gov. Jay Inslee’s desk to be signed into law.
Since the beginning of December, lawmakers have been prefiling legislation in both the House and Senate to make for a quick start to the session.
More than 300 bills have been filed, covering the environment, opioids, housing, elections, public defense, recycling and more.
Constituents have many ways to stay engaged and informed with the goings-on in Olympia.
All committee hearings, press conferences and meetings will be streamed on TVW.org. Members of the public can testify on bills remotely or in-person, if they are willing to make the trip to Olympia.
To talk to a lawmaker, messages can be left with the lawmaker directly, or on the legislative hotline: 1-800-562-6000. On the Washington State Legislature website, constituents can also check in on the daily schedules and the status of bills.
Finally, sign up for The Daily Herald’s politics newsletter for insights on the happenings at the Capitol.
