Today we're looking at the state Supreme Court ruling on the $15 per-hour minimum wage in SeaTac, and the latest state employment report.

We delve into regulatory reform, which is the topic of our most recent Special Report. The state auditor's office has done a series of audits of state agencies and found much room for improvement.

In this episode we discuss the state's mid-July to mid-August revenue collections, which were $107.5 million above the forecast, and Washington again ranking highest in workers' compensation benefit costs.

Our third in a series on the McCleary ruling looks at the complexities involved in shifting responsibility for basic education from Washington's 295 local school districts to the state.

In this second of our series on the McCleary ruling, we discuss lawmakers' options for achieving full state funding of K-12 basic education.

In our first of several episodes on the state Supreme Court's 2012 McCleary ruling and subsequent orders, we describe what the ruling does.

Last week the state Supreme Court ordered a $100,000-per-day penalty against the state for not producing a plan to reach full K-12 basic education by 2018. Lawmakers have made significant progress, but have a highly complex task ahead of them. In this episode we analyze the court order, reactions to it, and the work that remains for legislators and the governor.

Today's discussion covers the national employment report for July 2015, plus the Port of Portland's lost business.
