Climate change bills are starting to move. SHB 2311, which moves the state to net zero emissions by 2050, passed out of the House last night.
2638 (Peterson, D-Edmonds), an effort to legalize sports gambling within 29 Washington state tribal casinos is still at play after receiving bipartisan passage on the House floor this week. The bill also legalizes online sports gambling, albeit within brick and mortar tribal casinos. Internet gambling of any kind is currently a Class C felony. Gambling on games involving Washington colleges remains outlawed under the bill. While the bill and its opportunity to provide tax revenue to the state has attracted bipartisan support, a contentious battle continues with Nevada-based card room company, Maverick Gaming. Last week, Maverick reached agreement with their employees, now new members of Teamsters Local 117. Maverick contends it operates intimate neighborhood casinos that would not threaten tribal operations. Notably, the bill contains an emergency clause, providing protection from referendum, under the Washington State Constitution. Fourteen other states have already legalized sports-gambling. The Senate this week also passed 6357 (Conway, D-Tacoma) increasing the maximum pull-tab dollar limit from $1 to $5.
The Senate passed 6455 (Liias, D-Mukilteo) this week on a 25-22 vote, with four Democrats crossing the aisle to vote against it. The bill would require the default beverage in a restaurant children’s meal be water, sparkling water, unflavored milk, or nondairy milk. While parents may still order juice or soft drinks for their children, these items would no longer be default options listed on menus or options verbally delivered by servers. Several outraged Republican Senators sought to amend the bill to allow 100% juices and chocolate milk. Those amendments were not accepted, and the bill moves on to the House.
Title-only bills are in the news again. In the 2019 Legislative Session, 2167 (Tarleton, D-Seattle) was a “title-only” bill, a bill that contains a title, in this case “An Act Relating to Revenue,” but no substance. Two days prior to the end of session, this empty placeholder received its substance in the form of a doubling of B&O tax on large, out-of-state banks. The bill is estimated to earn the state $133 million per year. These placeholder bills are common and sidestep the Washington State Constitution’s ten-day rule, that no new bills be considered fewer than ten days before the legislature adjourns. The Washington Bankers Association and the American Bankers Association filed suit, claiming the bill not only violated the Constitution, but also the U.S. Constitution’s Commerce Clause by targeting out-of-state banks, giving banks in Washington an unfair advantage. On Thursday February 13, King County Superior Court agreed with the Office of the Attorney General, that the title only bill is beyond judicial review. The Commerce Clause challenge will be heard in May. Given the lack of case law on the ten-day rule, it is almost certain an appeal to the Washington State Supreme Court will be made on one or both issues.
On Friday, the Senate passed 5294 (Hunt, D-Olympia) requiring employers to grant a temporary leave of absence without loss of job status or seniority to an employee who is a member of the state Legislature, for that employee to perform any official duty as a member of the Legislature during regular and special legislative sessions. The measure passed on a 31-16 margin with Republican Senators Hawkins, Walsh, and Zeiger joining Democrats in support.
In a 7-2 decision, the Washington State Supreme Court sided with Sound Transit this week, upholding the agency's calculation of the motor vehicle excise tax (MVET) as constitutional. The ruling denies the claim in the class-action suit that vehicle owners are owed refunds of between $240-400 million and preserves the agency's voter-approved plan to build 62 miles of light rail and two rapid transit bus lines over 25 years. The suit is separate from another car-tab ruling this week. In that case, a King County judge largely upheld the $30 car-tab measure Initiative 976, rejecting most claims, including that the title contained too many subjects, that it cut local taxes with a statewide vote, and that the title was misleading. The judge did not however rule on two other claims. Because he did not rule entirely, the measure remains on hold and the decision is likely to be appealed. In the wake of the court declaration, anti-tax activist and author of 976 Tim Eyman declared this week he will run for Governor as a Republican, not as an indepdent as he had previously indicated. Of Eyman's 17 initiatives to make it to the ballot, 11 have passed with overwhelming margins.
