The end of session is in sight, with news of a new revenue package and movement on other important bills.

Budgets are on the move. Operating negotiations have begun and Capital Budget proposals are moving this week.

"Budget Week" has arrived. Budget-writer in both house have released two-year Operating Budget proposals--and they're on the move. High level details are in this podcast with more derailed review in This Week in Olympia at: www.wasa-oly.org/TWIO

House of Origin cutoff arrives tomorrow, with continued movement of the Big Three. Now, we're waiting for the Revenue Update, but Senate Republicans jumped out today with a budget plan to try and influence majority party plans coming soon.

Cutoff dates are arriving and the fast pace of movement is even more frenetic--if even possible. Big Three bills remain active and await further action. As we wait, levy lid and LEA discussion continue to heat up and Simple Majority for bonds has major movement!
