At 8:40 p.m. the Washinton State Legislature adjourned the regular 2010 supplemental legislative session. The Legislature worked tireslessly through the evening to pass several major policy bills prior to adjournment, including major K-12 reform legislation.
Despite the difficult and hard work by the Legislature to take action on several critical policy bills, the Legislature did not pass a supplemental operating budget or revenue legislation prior to adjournment this evening. The Legislature also did not pass a supplemental capital budget. In fact neither the House nor the Senate passed their proposed supplemental capital bugets off their respective floors by sine die.
An annoucement regarding the timing and focus of a special session is expected.
