Washington Legislature: What passed, what stalled

0

OLYMPIA, Wash. (AP) — Washington lawmakers adjourned their 60-day session after passing what they hope is the final piece of a long-running education funding mandate, along with a one-time property tax cut for homeowners.

In addition, in a last minute compromise between lawmakers, police groups and advocates of an initiative that was initially headed to the November ballot, they also voted to make it easier to prosecute police who commit negligent or reckless shootings, updating a law that made it uniquely difficult to hold officers criminally liable.

Thursday night's adjournment was the first year lawmakers haven't had to go into special session since 2014.
