Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) - The Legislative Process (2 min)

Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) is your straightforward guide through the often confounding legislative process.

Script:
The Legislative Process is a series of steps that bills must go through to be enacted. Each step must be completed in a certain period of time.
The Legislature is split into 2 chambers (Senate & House)
In order to become law the exact same bill must pass both chambers in the exact same form (no changes) in the exact same session.
This allows more elected officials to “perfect” a bill before it is passed
The basic steps are:
Policy Committee
Fiscal Committee
Floor Debate
Then pass over to the other chamber to start again
If the bill passes through the second chamber unchanged it goes to the Governor's desk who can sign it, veto it, or do nothing and allow it to pass into law without signature.

Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) - Policy Committees (3 min)

Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) is your straightforward guide through the often confounding legislative process.

Script:
It’s the only time all bills have the same status
All that has happened is that bills have been:
“Introduced”
Given a number
Sent to a Policy Committee
Policy Committees are organized by topic
Members specialize on their areas of expertise within committees
Committee members look at bills assigned to the committee and act on two phases:
A Public Hearing - Interested parties from the public weigh in / testify on a bill
Executive Session - is the term for when they vote on it to send it out of committee
Committees vary in size.

Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) - Floor: What is Decorum? (3min)
Don’t want people attacking each other - fun to watch but it’s a bad thing

Civics 101 in 120 Seconds (ish) is your straightforward guide through the often confounding legislative process.

Script:
What is the Floor? Floor of Senate or House
The chamber and everybody in it at the same time
All 49 in the Senate and 98 members in the House - That's what the Floor is
All sorts of rules, decorum to process. What is decorum?
Rules on how members treat each other
Speak to ideas not people, policies not personalities
Meant to depersonalize conflict - Don’t want people attacking each other - fun to watch but it’s a bad thing
Decorum also speeds up the process by avoiding distractions
Not allowed to use each other's names but rather, ‘Gentle Lady from the 26th district’ etc.
Don't want it to get personal
No impugning motives

Senate Page, Jasper Holman, (Xutuwitki Natxana Kamamul) asks House Civil Rights and Judiciary Committee Chair: Jamila Taylor, (D) 30th District, and Ranking Committee Member, Jim Walsh (R) 19th District, "...in my research I found there's a great over representation amongst minority groups within Washington courts, specifically indigenous, black, and Latino populations. How could legislation work to improve the fairness within the legal system for minorities”

The House Civil Rights & Judiciary Committee considers a wide variety of legal issues, including constitutional law; privacy rights; anti-discrimination measures; commercial law; torts; probate; guardianships; civil commitment; forensic mental health; firearms; common interest community issues involving liability and uniform laws; and eminent domain. The committee also considers issues relating to courts and judicial administration; and family law issues such as marriage, marriage dissolution, child support and adoption.

Senate Page, Isaac Chapman, asks House Civil Rights and Judiciary Committee Chair: Jamila Taylor, (D) 30th District, and Ranking Committee Member, Jim Walsh (R) 19th District, "...In my research, I learned that having a mandatory minimum wage can economically force businesses to avoid hiring those with disabilities or less experience. Do you think that if we removed minimum wage it would enable business owners to hire more diversely, and at a lower cost?”

The House Civil Rights & Judiciary Committee considers a wide variety of legal issues, including constitutional law; privacy rights; anti-discrimination measures; commercial law; torts; probate; guardianships; civil commitment; forensic mental health; firearms; common interest community issues involving liability and uniform laws; and eminent domain.

House Page, David Sternback, asks House Transportation Committee Chair: Jake Fey, (D) 27th District, and Ranking Committee Member, Andrew Barkis (R) 2nd District, "... In 2019, The Legislature passed the Washington State Ferries 2040 Long Range Plan. Parts of this plan were delayed by Gov. Ferguson. What is the long-term financial sustainability of our ferries?"

The House Transportation Committee considers issues related to a broad range of multimodal transportation services and infrastructure for all communities and residents regardless of physical and mental disability, income status or age and the intersection of transportation policy with the environment and safety. The committee also considers the transportation budget and revenues to fund investments in transportation and related carbon-reduction programs, and transportation agencies, including the Washington State Traffic Safety Commission, the Washington State Patrol, and the Department of Transportation.

Senate Page, Harry Sumner, asks House Early Learning and Human Services Committee Chair: Steve Bergquist, (D) 11th District, and Ranking Committee Member, Carolyn Eslick, (R) 39th District, "...Washington has long struggled to provide ubiquitous, affordable childcare, which presents burdens for many Washingtonian families. Despite increases in funding, for example, through the capital gains tax, the problem persists. As such, what do you think is the best long-term solution to address the cost of childcare?"

The Early Learning & Human Services Committee considers a broad array of issues and services affecting children and families, including early learning; child care; child and youth development; child welfare services; children’s mental health; at-risk and homeless youth; juvenile justice; economic assistance programs; developmental disabilities; and long-term care.

Senate Page, Emily Alexander, asks Senate Higher Education and Workforce Development Committee Chair: T’wina Noblest, (D) 28th District, and Ranking Committee Member, Judy Warnick, (R) 13th District, "...many students in Washington state are struggling with the rising cost of higher education in more than just overall inflation rates but also relative to current income average and financial availability, leading to increased student loan debt and limited access to affordable higher education options. What specific policies or initiatives are you currently supporting to make higher education more accessible and affordable for students in Washington with decreased amounts of long term setbacks like student loans?"

The Senate Higher Education & Workforce Development Committee considers issues relating to:
Tuition
The state’s public and private colleges and universities
Apprenticeship and workforce programs
Governance and coordination of higher education
Higher education faculty, not including collective bargaining issues
Financial aid
