        On page 2, after line 14, insert the following:


        "NEW SECTION. Sec. 101. The legislature has declared that this state has a compelling state interest in reaffirming its historical commitment to the institution of marriage as a union between a man and a woman as husband and wife and in protecting that institution. The legislature has further declared its intent to establish public policy against same-sex marriage in statutory law that clearly and definitively declares same-sex marriages will not be recognized in Washington, even if they are made legal in other states. The legislature has enacted statutory law that prohibits marriages when the parties are persons other than a male and a female and provides that marriages between two persons other than a male and a female that are recognized as valid in another jurisdiction are not valid in this state. This act shall not be construed to endorse any specific belief, practice, behavior, or orientation. Nothing in chapter 26.60 RCW or chapter 156, Laws of 2007 or this act is intended to or shall be construed to promote or endorse same-sex marriage or to modify or supersede state law related to marriage."


        Renumber the remaining sections consecutively, correct any internal references accordingly, and correct the title.



POINT OF ORDER


       Representative Springer requested a scope and object ruling on amendment (1075) to Second Substitute House Bill No. 3104.


SPEAKER'S RULING


       Mr. Speaker (Representative Moeller presiding): "A point of order has been raised under House Rule 11 (e) with respect to amendment (1075); the question being whether the amendment would change the Scope and Object of Second Substitute House Bill No. 3104. The bill has a narrow title, "expanding rights and responsibilities of all couples recognized as domestic partners under chapter 26.20 RCW." Not surprisingly the bill's object is to expand the rights and responsibilities of all couples recognized as domestic partners under chapter 26.20 RCW.

       Amendment (1075) would add an intent section to this bill declaring that the state has a compelling interest in reaffirming its commitment to the institution of marriage.

       The Speaker finds that no couple whose rights and responsibilities as domestic partners under chapter 26.20 RCW, are included in the amendment's stated intent, and further, that no persons currently married under Washington law, have any rights or responsibilities under the domestic partnership law.

       The bill and the amendment share no common purpose.

       The Speaker finds that amendment (1075) is out of order under House Rule 11 (e) in that it violates the Scope and Object of the bill.

       While the objection was not raised, the Speaker would further note that the amendment would also be out of order under House Rule 11 (d) which requires that amendments be germane.

       The Speaker (Representative Moeller presiding): Representative Springer, your point of order is well taken. Amendment (1075) is out of order."


       Representative Rodne moved the adoption of amendment (1062):


        On page 195, after line 9, insert the following:


        "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1301. The secretary of state shall submit this act to the people for their adoption and ratification, or rejection, at the next general election to be held in this state, in accordance with Article II, section 1 of the state Constitution and the laws adopted to facilitate its operation."


        Renumber the remaining sections consecutively and correct the title.


       Representatives Rodne and McCune spoke in favor of the adoption of the amendment.


       Representative Hunter spoke against the adoption of the amendment.


       The amendment was not adopted.


       There being no objection, the rules were suspended, the second reading considered the third and the bill was placed on final passage.

POINT OF ORDER



       Representative Springer requested a scope and object ruling on the amendment (1165) to House Bill No. 2650.


SPEAKER'S RULING


       Mr. Speaker (Representative Morris presiding): "House Bill No. 2650 is titled An Act Relating to authorizing a cigarette tax agreement between the State of Washington and the Yakama Nation". The bill simply permits the Governor to enter into an agreement with the Yakama Nation that provides for a tribal tax on cigarettes that phases up to 87.6 percent of the state cigarette tax rate.

       Amendment (1165) prohibits the Governor from accepting contributions, campaign or otherwise, during any period of negotiation and the subsequent four years to any agreement.

       The underlying bill is drafted narrowly to accomplish one specific purpose. The restrictions imposed by the amendment amount to changes in substantive law. These changes well exceed the purpose of the bill.

       Representative Springer, your point of order is well taken."

       With the consent of the House, amendment (1104) was withdrawn.


       Representative Jarrett moved the adoption of amendment (1123):


        Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:


        "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. The legislature finds that meeting the needs of vulnerable children who enter the child welfare system requires a continuum of services available to meet the child's current needs and to promote and support the child's long-term well-being. Children who enter foster care and subsequently achieve permanency through adoption will have ongoing developmental needs relating, in part, to the length of time they spent in care. The legislature intends to encourage a greater focus on children's developmental needs by promoting closer adherence to timeliness standards in the resolution of dependency cases and by elevating the importance of permanency for children.


        Sec. 2. RCW 13.34.136 and 2007 c 413 s 7 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) A permanency plan shall be developed no later than sixty days from the time the supervising agency assumes responsibility for providing services, including placing the child, or at the time of a hearing under RCW 13.34.130, whichever occurs first. The permanency planning process continues until a permanency planning goal is achieved or dependency is dismissed. The planning process shall include reasonable efforts to return the child to the parent's home.


        (2) The agency supervising the dependency shall submit a written permanency plan to all parties and the court not less than fourteen days prior to the scheduled hearing. Responsive reports of parties not in agreement with the supervising agency's proposed permanency plan must be provided to the supervising agency, all other parties, and the court at least seven days prior to the hearing.

        The permanency plan shall include:

        (a) A permanency plan of care that shall identify one of the following outcomes as a primary goal and may identify additional outcomes as alternative goals: Return of the child to the home of the child's parent, guardian, or legal custodian; adoption; guardianship; permanent legal custody; long-term relative or foster care, until the child is age eighteen, with a written agreement between the parties and the care provider; successful completion of a responsible living skills program; or independent living, if appropriate and if the child is age sixteen or older. The department shall not discharge a child to an independent living situation before the child is eighteen years of age unless the child becomes emancipated pursuant to chapter 13.64 RCW;

        (b) Unless the court has ordered, pursuant to RCW 13.34.130(((4))) (5), that a termination petition be filed, a specific plan as to where the child will be placed, what steps will be taken to return the child home, what steps the agency will take to promote existing appropriate sibling relationships and/or facilitate placement together or contact in accordance with the best interests of each child, and what actions the agency will take to maintain parent-child ties. All aspects of the plan shall include the goal of achieving permanence for the child.

        (i) The agency plan shall specify what services the parents will be offered to enable them to resume custody, what requirements the parents must meet to resume custody, and a time limit for each service plan and parental requirement.

        (ii) Visitation is the right of the family, including the child and the parent, in cases in which visitation is in the best interest of the child. Early, consistent, and frequent visitation is crucial for maintaining parent-child relationships and making it possible for parents and children to safely reunify. The agency shall encourage the maximum parent and child and sibling contact possible, when it is in the best interest of the child, including regular visitation and participation by the parents in the care of the child while the child is in placement. Visitation shall not be limited as a sanction for a parent's failure to comply with court orders or services where the health, safety, or welfare of the child is not at risk as a result of the visitation. Visitation may be limited or denied only if the court determines that such limitation or denial is necessary to protect the child's health, safety, or welfare. The court and the agency should rely upon community resources, relatives, foster parents, and other appropriate persons to provide transportation and supervision for visitation to the extent that such resources are available, and appropriate, and the child's safety would not be compromised.

        (iii) A child shall be placed as close to the child's home as possible, preferably in the child's own neighborhood, unless the court finds that placement at a greater distance is necessary to promote the child's or parents' well-being.

        (iv) The plan shall state whether both in-state and, where appropriate, out-of-state placement options have been considered by the department.

        (v) Unless it is not in the best interests of the child, whenever practical, the plan should ensure the child remains enrolled in the school the child was attending at the time the child entered foster care.

        (vi) The agency charged with supervising a child in placement shall provide all reasonable services that are available within the agency, or within the community, or those services which the department has existing contracts to purchase. It shall report to the court if it is unable to provide such services; and

        (c) If the court has ordered, pursuant to RCW 13.34.130(((4))) (5), that a termination petition be filed, a specific plan as to where the child will be placed, what steps will be taken to achieve permanency for the child, services to be offered or provided to the child, and, if visitation would be in the best interests of the child, a recommendation to the court regarding visitation between parent and child pending a fact-finding hearing on the termination petition. The agency shall not be required to develop a plan of services for the parents or provide services to the parents if the court orders a termination petition be filed. However, reasonable efforts to ensure visitation and contact between siblings shall be made unless there is reasonable cause to believe the best interests of the child or siblings would be jeopardized.

        (3) Permanency planning goals should be achieved at the earliest possible date, ((preferably before)). If the child has been in out-of-home care for fifteen of the most recent twenty-two months, the court shall require the filing of a petition seeking termination of parental rights in accordance with RCW 13.34.145(2). In cases where parental rights have been terminated, the child is legally free for adoption, and adoption has been identified as the primary permanency planning goal, it shall be a goal to complete the adoption within six months following entry of the termination order.

        (4) If the court determines that the continuation of reasonable efforts to prevent or eliminate the need to remove the child from his or her home or to safely return the child home should not be part of the permanency plan of care for the child, reasonable efforts shall be made to place the child in a timely manner and to complete whatever steps are necessary to finalize the permanent placement of the child.

        (5) The identified outcomes and goals of the permanency plan may change over time based upon the circumstances of the particular case.

        (6) The court shall consider the child's relationships with the child's siblings in accordance with RCW 13.34.130(3).

        (7) For purposes related to permanency planning:

        (a) "Guardianship" means a dependency guardianship or a legal guardianship pursuant to chapter 11.88 RCW or equivalent laws of another state or a federally recognized Indian tribe.

        (b) "Permanent custody order" means a custody order entered pursuant to chapter 26.10 RCW.

        (c) "Permanent legal custody" means legal custody pursuant to chapter 26.10 RCW or equivalent laws of another state or a federally recognized Indian tribe.


        Sec. 3. RCW 13.34.145 and 2007 c 413 s 9 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) The purpose of a permanency planning hearing is to review the permanency plan for the child, inquire into the welfare of the child and progress of the case, and reach decisions regarding the permanent placement of the child.

        (a) A permanency planning hearing shall be held in all cases where the child has remained in out-of-home care for at least nine months and an adoption decree, guardianship order, or permanent custody order has not previously been entered. The hearing shall take place no later than twelve months following commencement of the current placement episode.

        (b) Whenever a child is removed from the home of a dependency guardian or long-term relative or foster care provider, and the child is not returned to the home of the parent, guardian, or legal custodian but is placed in out-of-home care, a permanency planning hearing shall take place no later than twelve months, as provided in this section, following the date of removal unless, prior to the hearing, the child returns to the home of the dependency guardian or long-term care provider, the child is placed in the home of the parent, guardian, or legal custodian, an adoption decree, guardianship order, or a permanent custody order is entered, or the dependency is dismissed.

        (c) Permanency planning goals should be achieved at the earliest possible date, preferably before the child has been in out-of-home care for fifteen months. In cases where parental rights have been terminated, the child is legally free for adoption, and adoption has been identified as the primary permanency planning goal, it shall be a goal to complete the adoption within six months following entry of the termination order.

        (2) When a child has been in out-of-home care for fifteen of the most recent twenty-two months, the court shall require the filing of a petition seeking termination of parental rights. The court may make a good cause written finding as to why filing a petition for termination of parental rights is not appropriate at this time. Any such good cause finding shall be reviewed at all subsequent motion and review hearings pertaining to the child.

        (3) No later than ten working days prior to the permanency planning hearing, the agency having custody of the child shall submit a written permanency plan to the court and shall mail a copy of the plan to all parties and their legal counsel, if any.

        (((3))) (4) At the permanency planning hearing, the court shall conduct the following inquiry:

        (a) If a goal of long-term foster or relative care has been achieved prior to the permanency planning hearing, the court shall review the child's status to determine whether the placement and the plan for the child's care remain appropriate.

        (b) In cases where the primary permanency planning goal has not been achieved, the court shall inquire regarding the reasons why the primary goal has not been achieved and determine what needs to be done to make it possible to achieve the primary goal. The court shall review the permanency plan prepared by the agency and make explicit findings regarding each of the following:

        (i) The continuing necessity for, and the safety and appropriateness of, the placement;

        (ii) The extent of compliance with the permanency plan by the agency and any other service providers, the child's parents, the child, and the child's guardian, if any;

        (iii) The extent of any efforts to involve appropriate service providers in addition to agency staff in planning to meet the special needs of the child and the child's parents;

        (iv) The progress toward eliminating the causes for the child's placement outside of his or her home and toward returning the child safely to his or her home or obtaining a permanent placement for the child;

        (v) The date by which it is likely that the child will be returned to his or her home or placed for adoption, with a guardian or in some other alternative permanent placement; and

        (vi) If the child has been placed outside of his or her home for fifteen of the most recent twenty-two months, not including any period during which the child was a runaway from the out-of-home placement or the first six months of any period during which the child was returned to his or her home for a trial home visit, the appropriateness of the permanency plan, whether reasonable efforts were made by the agency to achieve the goal of the permanency plan, and the circumstances which prevent the child from any of the following:

        (A) Being returned safely to his or her home;

        (B) Having a petition for the involuntary termination of parental rights filed on behalf of the child;

        (C) Being placed for adoption;

        (D) Being placed with a guardian;

        (E) Being placed in the home of a fit and willing relative of the child; or

        (F) Being placed in some other alternative permanent placement, including independent living or long-term foster care.

        (c)(i) If the permanency plan identifies independent living as a goal, the court shall make a finding that the provision of services to assist the child in making a transition from foster care to independent living will allow the child to manage his or her financial, personal, social, educational, and nonfinancial affairs prior to approving independent living as a permanency plan of care.

        (ii) The permanency plan shall also specifically identify the services that will be provided to assist the child to make a successful transition from foster care to independent living.

        (iii) The department shall not discharge a child to an independent living situation before the child is eighteen years of age unless the child becomes emancipated pursuant to chapter 13.64 RCW.

        (d) If the child has resided in the home of a foster parent or relative for more than six months prior to the permanency planning hearing, the court shall also enter a finding regarding whether the foster parent or relative was informed of the hearing as required in RCW 74.13.280 ((and 13.34.138)), 13.34.215(5), and 13.34.096.

        (((4))) (5) In all cases, at the permanency planning hearing, the court shall:

        (a)(i) Order the permanency plan prepared by the agency to be implemented; or

        (ii) Modify the permanency plan, and order implementation of the modified plan; and

        (b)(i) Order the child returned home only if the court finds that a reason for removal as set forth in RCW 13.34.130 no longer exists; or

        (ii) Order the child to remain in out-of-home care for a limited specified time period while efforts are made to implement the permanency plan.

        (((5))) (6) Following the first permanency planning hearing, the court shall hold a further permanency planning hearing in accordance with this section at least once every twelve months until a permanency planning goal is achieved or the dependency is dismissed, whichever occurs first.

        (((6))) (7) Prior to the second permanency planning hearing, the agency that has custody of the child shall consider whether to file a petition for termination of parental rights.

        (((7))) (8) If the court orders the child returned home, casework supervision shall continue for at least six months, at which time a review hearing shall be held pursuant to RCW 13.34.138, and the court shall determine the need for continued intervention.

        (((8))) (9) The juvenile court may hear a petition for permanent legal custody when: (a) The court has ordered implementation of a permanency plan that includes permanent legal custody; and (b) the party pursuing the permanent legal custody is the party identified in the permanency plan as the prospective legal custodian. During the pendency of such proceeding, the court shall conduct review hearings and further permanency planning hearings as provided in this chapter. At the conclusion of the legal guardianship or permanent legal custody proceeding, a juvenile court hearing shall be held for the purpose of determining whether dependency should be dismissed. If a guardianship or permanent custody order has been entered, the dependency shall be dismissed.

        (((9))) (10) Continued juvenile court jurisdiction under this chapter shall not be a barrier to the entry of an order establishing a legal guardianship or permanent legal custody when the requirements of subsection (((8))) (9) of this section are met.

        (((10))) (11) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to limit the ability of the agency that has custody of the child to file a petition for termination of parental rights or a guardianship petition at any time following the establishment of dependency. Upon the filing of such a petition, a fact-finding hearing shall be scheduled and held in accordance with this chapter unless the agency requests dismissal of the petition prior to the hearing or unless the parties enter an agreed order terminating parental rights, establishing guardianship, or otherwise resolving the matter.

        (((11))) (12) The approval of a permanency plan that does not contemplate return of the child to the parent does not relieve the supervising agency of its obligation to provide reasonable services, under this chapter, intended to effectuate the return of the child to the parent, including but not limited to, visitation rights. The court shall consider the child's relationships with siblings in accordance with RCW 13.34.130.

        (((12))) (13) Nothing in this chapter may be construed to limit the procedural due process rights of any party in a termination or guardianship proceeding filed under this chapter.


        Sec. 4. RCW 13.34.020 and 1998 c 314 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

        The legislature declares that the family unit is a fundamental resource of American life which should be nurtured. Toward the continuance of this principle, the legislature declares that the family unit should remain intact unless a child's right to conditions of basic nurture, health, or safety is jeopardized. When the rights of basic nurture, physical and mental health, and safety of the child and the legal rights of the parents are in conflict, the rights and safety of the child should prevail. In making reasonable efforts under this chapter, the child's health ((and)), safety, and long-term well-being shall be the paramount concern. The right of a child to basic nurturing includes the right to a safe, stable, and permanent home and a speedy resolution of any proceeding under this chapter.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 5. Subject to the availability of funds appropriated for this purpose, the department shall contract for an information and referral services provider to support families with children adopted out of foster care. The contract shall include components for statewide support of families who may be seeking adoption-specific resources and information, including referrals for individual or family counseling, support groups, or community services; and relevant training programs. The information and referrals must be provided by an entity knowledgeable and experienced in adoption issues. The contract shall specify that the service provider must serve as the central point of contact for Washington families seeking adoption-related information and referral services. The department also shall develop a simple process for voluntary sharing of contact information for adoptive parents for the purpose of facilitating periodic surveys by the contracted information and referral services provider about the service and support needs of families who have adopted children from foster care.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 6. (1) The definitions in this subsection apply throughout this section unless the context clearly requires otherwise.

        (a) "Adopted" means that a valid decree of the adoption regarding the child and parent was entered and remains intact in Washington or in another jurisdiction.

        (b) "Child" means any child under the age of eighteen who was found to be dependent, placed in out-of-home care, and subsequently was adopted from an out-of-home placement.

        (c) "Licensed facility" means a facility licensed under chapter 74.15 RCW to provide residential evaluation and treatment services for children.

        (d) "Parent" means the adoptive and legal parent of a child according to the terms of a valid decree of the adoption, or the legal guardian of an adopted child.

        (e) "Voluntary placement agreement" means a written agreement between the department and a child's parent authorizing the department to place the child in a licensed facility for the purpose of receiving mental health or behavioral health treatment intended to stabilize the child's functioning and support the child's return home. Under the terms of a voluntary placement agreement, the parent retains legal custody of the child while the department temporarily assumes responsibility for the child's placement and care.

        (2) A parent may request and the department may agree to enter into a voluntary placement agreement whenever the following conditions are met:

        (a) The child resides in Washington state;

        (b) Less intensive and traditional family preservation services, community resources, and/or adoption supports have been unsuccessful or are not likely to be successful in stabilizing the child's behavior and functioning; and

        (c) The parent has no reasonable alternative to access the level of care necessary to meet the child's needs and preserve the adoption.

        (3)(a) Whenever the department assumes responsibility for the placement and care of a child under this section, the department, in consultation with the child, the child's parent, and a mental health professional, shall develop a plan for the child's eventual return home. If the plan anticipates the child will remain in out-of-home care one hundred eighty days or longer, or if at any time it appears the child will remain in out-of-home care longer than one hundred eighty days, the department and the parent shall jointly seek a judicial determination that the agreement is in the child's best interests. If the child exits the out-of-home placement before one hundred eighty days have elapsed, no judicial determination is required.

        (b) To obtain the judicial determination required under this section, the department and the parent shall file a joint petition alleging there is located or residing within the county a child who was adopted from the foster care system whose current behavioral health or mental health needs can not be met adequately by the child's parent, and that as a result the child has been placed in out-of-home care pursuant to this section. The petition shall request that the court conduct periodic reviews of the child's placement and make a determination whether continued placement is in the best interests of the child. The petition shall contain the name, date of birth, and residence of the child and the names and residences of the child's parent or legal guardian who has consented to the voluntary placement agreement. The department shall make reasonable attempts to ascertain and set forth in the petition the identity, location, and custodial status of any parent who is not a party to the placement agreement and reasons why that parent cannot assume placement and care authority of the child.

        (c) Permanency planning for the child shall be the joint responsibility of the department and the parent.

        (4) A written agreement under this section must specify the legal status of the child and the rights and obligations of the parent, the child, and the department while the child is in the licensed facility. Any party to the agreement may terminate the agreement at any time by providing advance notice to the other party and to the child if he or she is thirteen years of age or older. Upon termination of the agreement, the child must be returned to the care of his or her parent unless the child has been taken into custody pursuant to RCW 13.34.050 or 26.44.050, placed in shelter care pursuant to RCW 13.34.060, or placed in foster care pursuant to RCW 13.34.130.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 7. A new section is added to chapter 13.34 RCW to read as follows:

        (1) The legislature finds that as a condition of the state's receipt of federal funds for foster care under Title IV-B and Title IV-E of the social security act, all children in foster care must be subjected to periodic court review. Unfortunately, this requirement includes children who were adopted out of foster care and who subsequently are temporarily returned to a foster care placement solely because their parents have determined that the child's mental health or behavioral health service needs require an out-of-home placement. Except for providing such needed services, the parents of these children are completely competent to care for the children. The legislature intends that court review of out-of-home placements pursuant to section 6 of this act be structured to minimize the stress and inconvenience to families caused by complying with these federal requirements.

        (2) Upon filing of the petition required under section 6 of this act, the clerk of the court shall schedule the petition for a hearing to be held no later than fourteen calendar days after the petition has been filed. The department shall provide notification of the time, date, and purpose of the hearing to the parent or legal guardian who has agreed to the child's placement in out-of-home care. The department shall also make reasonable attempts to notify any parent who is not a party to the placement agreement, if the parent's identity and location are known. Notification under this section may be given by the most expedient means, including but not limited to mail, personal service, and telephone.


        Sec. 8. RCW 74.13.080 and 1987 c 170 s 11 are each amended to read as follows:

        Except as provided in RCW 74.13.350 and section 6 of this act, the department shall not make payment for any child in group care placement unless the group home is licensed and the department has the ((custody of)) placement and care authority for the child under a court order or a voluntary placement agreement and the authority to remove the child in a cooperative manner after at least seventy-two hours notice to the child care provider; such notice may be waived in emergency situations. However, this requirement shall not be construed to prohibit the department from making or mandate the department to make payment for Indian children placed in facilities licensed by federally recognized Indian tribes pursuant to chapter 74.15 RCW.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 9. Sections 5 and 6 of this act are each added to chapter 74.13 RCW.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 10. If specific funding for the purposes of sections 2 and 3 of this act, referencing sections 2 and 3 of this act by bill or chapter number and section number, is not provided by June 30, 2008, in the omnibus appropriations act, sections 2 and 3 of this act are null and void.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 11. If specific funding for the purposes of section 5 of this act, referencing section 5 of this act by bill or chapter number and section number, is not provided by June 30, 2008, in the omnibus appropriations act, section 5 of this act is null and void.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 12. If specific funding for the purposes of sections 6, 7, and 8 of this act, referencing sections 6, 7, and 8 of this act by bill or chapter number and section number, is not provided by June 30, 2008, in the omnibus appropriations act, sections 6, 7, and 8 of this act are null and void."

        Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:


        "NEW SECTION. Sec. 1. A new section is added to chapter 74.13 RCW to read as follows:

        The legislature finds that foster parents are an essential partner in the child welfare system, with responsibility for the care of vulnerable children whose families are unable to meet their needs. Because children who enter the foster care system have experienced varying degrees of stress and trauma before placement, foster parents sometimes are called upon to provide care for children with significant behavioral challenges and intensive developmental needs. Other children who enter foster care may require extraordinary care due to health care needs or medical fragility. The legislature also finds that foster parents with specialized skills and experience, or professional training and expertise, can contribute significantly to a child's well-being by promoting placement stability and supporting the child's developmental growth while in foster care. The legislature intends to implement a specialized foster home program to enhance the continuum of care options and to promote permanency and positive outcomes for children served in the child welfare system by authorizing the department to contract for specialized foster home services.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 2. A new section is added to chapter 74.13 RCW to read as follows:

        (1) The department shall select two or more geographic areas with high concentrations of children with significant needs in foster care for the implementation of phase one of a specialized foster home program. In determining the scope of the first phase of the program, the department shall: (a) Examine areas where there are concentrations of children with significant behavioral challenges and intensive developmental or medical needs who are being served in family foster homes; (b) consider areas of appropriate size that will allow for careful analysis of the impact of the specialized foster home program on the array of out-of-home care providers, including providers of behavioral rehabilitation services; and (c) determine the number of children to be served in these selected areas. During phase one of the implementation of the program, only licensed foster parents under the supervision of the department shall be eligible to participate in the program. Implementation of the program at the phase one sites also shall be structured to support the long-term goal of eventual expansion of the program statewide.

        (2) Based on the information gathered by the work group convened under chapter 413, Laws of 2007, and the additional information gathered pursuant to this section, the department shall actively:

        (a) Seek recommendations from foster parents and other out-of-home service providers in the program sites regarding the qualifications and requirements of specialized foster home providers, the needs of the children to be served, and the desired outcomes to be measured or monitored at the respective program sites; and

        (b) Consult with experts in child welfare, children's mental health, and children's health care to identify the evidence-based or promising practice models to be employed in the program and the appropriate supports to ensure program fidelity, including, but not limited to, the necessary training and clinical consultation and oversight to be provided to specialized foster homes.

        (3) Using the recommendations from foster parents, the consultations with professionals from appropriate disciplines, and the information provided in the report to the legislature under chapter 413, Laws of 2007, including the information presented to the work group convened to prepare and present the report, the department shall implement the program through contracts with foster parents who are determined by the department to meet the eligibility criteria for the specialized foster home program. The department shall:

        (a) Define the criteria for specialized foster home providers, which shall include a requirement that the foster parent be licensed by the department as a foster parent, as well as meet additional requirements relating to relevant experience, education, training, and professional expertise necessary to meet the high needs of children identified as eligible for this program;

        (b) Define criteria for identifying children with high needs who may be eligible for placement in a specialized foster home provider. Such criteria shall be based on the best interests of the child and include an assessment of the child's past and current level of functioning as well as a determination that the child's treatment plan and developmental needs are consistent with the placement plan;

        (c) Establish a policy for placement of children with high needs in specialized foster homes, including a process for matching the child's needs with the foster parent's skills and expertise;

        (d) Establish a limit on the number and ages of children with high needs that may be placed in a specialized foster home pursuant to the specialized foster home program contract. Such limitation shall recognize that children with externalizing behaviors are most likely to experience long-term improvements in their behavior when care is provided in settings that minimize exposure to peers with challenging behaviors;

        (e) Identify one or more approved models of skill building for use by specialized foster home providers;

        (f) Specify the training and consultation requirements that support the models of service;

        (g) Establish a system of supports, including clinical consultation and oversight for specialized foster homes;

        (h) Establish a level of stipend payments to specialized foster home providers that is not tied to deficits in the child's level of functioning;

        (i) Establish clearly defined responsibilities of specialized foster home providers, who have a specialized foster home contract including responsibilities to promote permanency and connections with birth parents; and

        (j) Develop a process for annual performance reviews of specialized foster home providers.

        (4) Contracts between the department and a specialized foster home provider shall include a statement of work focusing on achieving stability in placement and measuring improved permanency outcomes shall specify at least the following elements:

        (a) The model of treatment and care to be provided;

        (b) The training and ongoing professional consultation to be provided;

        (c) The method for determining any additional supports to be provided to an eligible child or the specialized foster home provider;

        (d) The desired outcomes to be measured;

        (e) A reasonable and efficient process for seeking a modification of the contract;

        (f) The rate and terms of payment under the contract; and

        (g) The term of the contract and the processes for an annual performance review of the specialized foster home provider and an annual assessment of the child.

        (5) Beginning on or before October 1, 2008, the department shall begin the selection of, and negotiation of contracts with, specialized foster home providers in the phase one areas selected for implementation.

        (6) Nothing in this act gives an eligible foster parent the right to a contract under the specialized foster home program, and nothing in this act gives a specialized foster home provider that has a contract under the program a right to have a child or children placed in the home pursuant to the contract.

        (7) "Specialized foster home providers" means foster parents who are determined by the department to be eligible foster parents, who have a specialized foster home program contract with the department.

        (8) The department shall provide an implementation status update to the governor and the legislature by January 30, 2009. Based on the experiences and lessons learned from implementation of the program during phase one, the department shall recommend a process and timeline for expanding the program and implementing it statewide. The department shall report to the governor and the appropriate members of the legislature by September 1, 2009, and shall identify the essential elements of the specialized foster home program that should be addressed or replicated as the program is expanded to the next phase.


        NEW SECTION. Sec. 3. A new section is added to chapter 41.56 RCW to read as follows:

        (1) In addition to the entities listed in RCW 41.56.020, this chapter applies to the governor with respect to specialized foster home providers. Solely for the purposes of collective bargaining and as expressly limited under subsections (2) and (3) of this section, the governor is the employer of specialized foster home providers who, solely for the purposes of collective bargaining, are public employees. The public employer shall be represented for bargaining purposes by the governor or the governor's designee.

        (2) There shall be collective bargaining between the governor and specialized foster home providers, except as follows:

        (a) A statewide unit of all specialized foster home providers is the only unit appropriate for purposes of collective bargaining. The commission shall adopt reasonable rules providing for the inclusion of unrepresented specialized foster home providers when, after implementation of phase one of the specialized foster home program described in section 2 of this act: (i) The labor organization certified as the exclusive bargaining representative of the specialized foster home providers petitions to represent one or more new groups of specialized foster home providers and demonstrates that it has majority support among those groups; or (ii) when any labor organization petitions to represent the entire bargaining unit of specialized foster home providers and demonstrates that it has at least a thirty percent showing of interest to warrant an election.

        (b) The exclusive bargaining representative of specialized foster home providers in the unit specified in (a) of this subsection shall be the representative chosen in an election conducted pursuant to RCW 41.56.070. Bargaining authorization cards furnished as the showing of interest in support of any representation petition or motion for intervention filed under this section shall be exempt from disclosure under chapter 42.56 RCW.

        (c) Notwithstanding the definition of "collective bargaining" in RCW 41.56.030(4), the scope of collective bargaining for specialized foster home providers under this section shall be limited solely to: (i) Economic compensation for enhanced services provided by specialized foster home providers in the form of a stipend; (ii) health and welfare benefits; (iii) labor management committees; and (iv) grievance procedures. Retirement benefits shall not be subject to collective bargaining. By such obligation, neither party shall be compelled to agree to a proposal or be required to make a concession unless otherwise provided in this chapter.

        (d) In addition to the entities listed in the mediation and interest arbitration provisions of RCW 41.56.430 through 41.56.470 and 41.56.480, the provisions apply to the governor or the governor's designee and the exclusive bargaining representative of specialized foster home providers, except that:

        (i) In addition to the factors to be taken into consideration by an interest arbitration panel under RCW 41.56.465, the panel shall consider the financial ability of the state to pay for the compensation and benefit provisions of a collective bargaining agreement.

        (ii) The decision of the arbitration panel is not binding on the legislature and, if the legislature does not approve the request for funds necessary to implement the compensation and benefit provisions of the arbitrated collective bargaining agreement, the decision is not binding on the state.

        (e) Specialized foster home providers do not have the right to strike.

        (3) Specialized foster home providers who are public employees solely for the purposes of collective bargaining under subsection (1) of this section are not, for that reason, employees of the state for any other purpose. This section applies only to the governance of the collective bargaining relationship between the employer and specialized foster home providers as provided in subsections (1) and (2) of this section.

        (4) This section does not create or modify:

        (a) The department's authority to establish a plan of care for each foster child or its core responsibility to manage foster care services, including determination of the level of care that each foster child is eligible to receive. This subsection shall not be interpreted to require collective bargaining over an individual foster child's plan of care;

        (b) The department's obligation to comply with the federal funding statutes and regulations, including but not limited to the social security act and the terms of any state plan or waiver granted by the federal government to ensure federal financial participation in the provision of the services;

        (c) The legislature's right to make programmatic modifications to the delivery of state services including standards of eligibility of children in foster care and specialized foster home providers participating in the programs and the nature of services provided. The governor shall not enter into, extend, or renew any agreement under this chapter that does not expressly reserve the legislative rights described in this subsection (4)(c);

        (d) The right of the court, the department, or any other agency or individual acting with proper legal authority, to remove a child from the care of a specialized foster home provider. The right or action of the court, the department, or any other agency or individual acting with proper legal authority to remove a child from the care of a specialized foster home provider shall not constitute an unfair labor practice;

        (e) The department's authority to set minimum licensing standards for foster parents, to establish a method for determining foster care maintenance payment rates that will be paid for the benefit of foster children, and to determine the foster care maintenance rate for each child in care;

        (f) The department's authority to establish, pursuant to statute, the nature and means of taking or resolving licensing action against any foster parent, or investigations and actions involving allegations of abuse or neglect made against a foster parent;

        (g) The department's ability to meet and consult with foster parents, including meetings with specialized foster home providers, as required under RCW 74.13.031;

        (h) The department's authority to define the criteria for specialized foster homes, including training, education, relevant experience, and professional expertise, and the department's authority to define the criteria for identifying high needs children who may be eligible for placement in a specialized foster home; or

        (i) RCW 43.43.832, 43.20A.205, or 74.15.130.

        (5) Nothing in this section is intended to imply that the state, the department, or its contractors agree to any additional vicarious, joint, or several liability for the action or inaction of a specialized foster home provider or prospective specialized foster home provider.

        (6) Upon meeting the requirements of subsection (7) of this section, the governor must submit, as a part of the proposed biennial or supplemental operating budget submitted to the legislature under RCW 43.88.030, a request for funds necessary to implement the stipend and benefit provisions of a collective bargaining agreement entered into under this section or for legislation necessary to implement such agreement.

        (7) A request for funds necessary to implement the stipend and benefit provisions of a collective bargaining agreement entered into under this section shall not be submitted by the governor to the legislature unless such request has been:

        (a) Submitted to the director of financial management by October 1st before the legislative session at which the request is to be considered, except that, for initial negotiations under this section, the request must be submitted after July 1, 2009; and

        (b) Certified by the director of financial management as being feasible financially for the state or reflects the binding decision of an arbitration panel reached under this section.

        (8) The legislature must approve or reject the submission of the request for funds as a whole. If the legislature rejects or fails to act on the submission, any such agreement will be reopened solely for the purpose of renegotiating the funds necessary to implement the agreement.

        (9) The governor shall periodically consult with the joint committee on employment relations established by RCW 41.80.010 regarding appropriations necessary to implement the stipend and benefit provisions of any collective bargaining agreement and, upon completion of negotiations, advise the committee on the elements of the agreement and on any legislation necessary to implement such agreement.

        (10) After the expiration date of any collective bargaining agreement entered into under this section, all of the terms and conditions specified in any such agreement remain in effect until the effective date of a subsequent agreement, not to exceed one year from the expiration date stated in the agreement, except as provided in subsection (4)(c) of this section.

        (11) If, after the stipend and benefit provisions of an agreement are approved by the legislature, a significant revenue shortfall occurs resulting in reduced appropriations, as declared by proclamation of the governor or by resolution of the legislature, both parties shall immediately enter into collective bargaining for a mutually agreed upon modification of the agreement.

        (12) In enacting this section, the legislature intends to provide state action immunity under federal and state antitrust laws for the joint activities of specialized foster home providers and their exclusive bargaining representative to the extent such activities are authorized by this chapter.

        (13) For purposes of chapter 41.56 RCW, "specialized foster home providers" means specialized foster home providers as defined in section 2 of this act, but not providers who are related to, or family members of, the children with extraordinary behavioral, developmental, or medical needs for whom they provide care.


        Sec. 4. RCW 41.04.810 and 2007 c 184 s 4 are each amended to read as follows:

       With the consent of the House, amendments (1180) and (1181) were withdrawn.


       Representative Lantz moved the adoption of amendment (1197):


        Strike everything after the enacting clause and insert the following:


        "Sec. 1. RCW 4.20.020 and 2007 c 156 s 29 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) Every ((such)) action under RCW 4.20.010 shall be for the benefit of the ((wife, husband)) spouse, state registered domestic partner, ((child)) or children, including stepchildren, of the person whose death shall have been so caused. If there ((be)) is no ((wife, husband)) spouse, state registered domestic partner, or ((such)) child ((or children, such)), the action may be maintained for the benefit of: (a) The parents((,)) of a deceased adult child if the parents are financially dependent upon the adult child for support or if the parents have had significant involvement in the adult child's life; or (b) an individual who is the sole beneficiary of the decedent's life insurance and has had significant involvement in the decedent's life. If there is no spouse, state registered domestic partner, child, parent, or such life insurance beneficiary, the action may be maintained for the benefit of sisters((,)) or brothers((,)) who ((may be)) are financially dependent upon the deceased person for support((, and who are resident within the United States at the time of his death)).

        In every such action the jury may ((give such)) award economic and noneconomic damages as((,)) under all circumstances of the case((,)) may to them seem just.

        (2) For the purposes of this section:

        (a) "Financially dependent for support" means substantial dependence based on the receipt of services that have an economic or monetary value, or substantial dependence based on actual monetary payments or contributions; and

        (b) "Significant involvement" means demonstrated support of an emotional, psychological, or financial nature within the relationship, at or reasonably near the time of death, or at or reasonably near the time of the incident causing death.


        Sec. 2. RCW 4.20.046 and 1993 c 44 s 1 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) All causes of action by a person or persons against another person or persons shall survive to the personal representatives of the former and against the personal representatives of the latter, whether such actions arise on contract or otherwise, and whether or not such actions would have survived at the common law or prior to the date of enactment of this section((: PROVIDED, HOWEVER, That)).

        (2) In addition to recovering economic losses, the personal representative ((shall only be)) is entitled to recover on behalf of those beneficiaries identified under RCW 4.20.020 any noneconomic damages for pain and suffering, anxiety, emotional distress, or humiliation, personal to and suffered by ((a)) the deceased ((on behalf of those beneficiaries enumerated in RCW 4.20.020, and such)) in such amounts as determined by a jury to be just under all the circumstances of the case. Damages under this section are recoverable regardless of whether or not the death was occasioned by the injury that is the basis for the action.

        (3) The liability of property of a husband and wife held by them as community property and subject to execution in satisfaction of a claim enforceable against such property so held shall not be affected by the death of either or both spouses; and a cause of action shall remain an asset as though both claiming spouses continued to live despite the death of either or both claiming spouses.

        (((2))) (4) Where death or an injury to person or property, resulting from a wrongful act, neglect or default, occurs simultaneously with or after the death of a person who would have been liable therefor if his death had not occurred simultaneously with such death or injury or had not intervened between the wrongful act, neglect or default and the resulting death or injury, an action to recover damages for such death or injury may be maintained against the personal representative of such person.


        Sec. 3. RCW 4.20.060 and 2007 c 156 s 30 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) No action for a personal injury to any person occasioning death shall abate, nor shall such right of action ((determine)) terminate, by reason of ((such)) the death((,)) if ((such)) the person has a surviving ((spouse, state registered domestic partner, or child living, including stepchildren, or leaving no surviving spouse, state registered domestic partner, or such children, if there is dependent upon the deceased for support and resident within the United States at the time of decedent's death, parents, sisters, or brothers; but such action may be prosecuted, or commenced and prosecuted, by the executor or administrator)) beneficiary in whose favor the action may be brought under subsection (2) of this section.

        (2) An action under this section shall be brought by the personal representative of the deceased((,)) in favor of ((such)) the surviving spouse or state registered domestic partner, ((or in favor of the surviving spouse or state registered domestic partner)) and ((such)) children((, or if)). If there is no surviving spouse ((or)), state registered domestic partner, ((in favor of such child)) or children, ((or if no surviving spouse, state registered domestic partner, or such child or children, then)) the action shall be brought in favor of the decedent's: (a) Parents((,)) if the parents are financially dependent upon the decedent for support or if the parents have had significant involvement in the decedent's life; or (b) sole beneficiary under a life insurance policy, if the beneficiary is an individual who had a significant involvement in the decedent's life. If there is no surviving spouse, state registered domestic partner, child, parent, or such life insurance beneficiary, the action shall be brought in favor of the decedent's sisters((,)) or brothers who ((may be)) are financially dependent upon ((such person)) the decedent for support((, and resident in the United States at the time of decedent's death)).

        (3) In addition to recovering economic losses, the persons identified in subsection (2) of this section are entitled to recover any noneconomic damages personal to and suffered by the decedent including, but not limited to, damages for the decedent's pain and suffering, anxiety, emotional distress, or humiliation, in such amounts as determined by a jury to be just under all the circumstances of the case.

        (4) For the purposes of this section:

        (a) "Financially dependent for support" means substantial dependence based on the receipt of services that have an economic or monetary value, or substantial dependence based on actual monetary payments or contributions; and

        (b) "Significant involvement" means demonstrated support of an emotional, psychological, or financial nature within the relationship, at or reasonably near the time of death, or at or reasonably near the time of the incident causing death.


        Sec. 4. RCW 4.24.010 and 1998 c 237 s 2 are each amended to read as follows:

        (1) A ((mother or father, or both,)) parent who has regularly contributed to the support of his or her minor child, ((and the mother or father, or both, of a child on whom either, or both, are)) or a parent who is financially dependent on a child for support or who has had significant involvement in a child's life, may maintain or join ((as a party)) an action as plaintiff for the injury or death of the child.

        (2) Each parent, separately from the other parent, is entitled to recover for his or her own loss regardless of marital status, even though this section creates only one cause of action((, but if the parents of the child are not married, are separated, or not married to each other damages may be awarded to each plaintiff separately, as the trier of fact finds just and equitable)).

        (3) If one parent brings an action under this section and the other parent is not named as a plaintiff, notice of the institution of the suit, together with a copy of the complaint, shall be served upon the other parent: PROVIDED, That notice shall be required only if parentage has been duly established.

        Such notice shall be in compliance with the statutory requirements for a summons. Such notice shall state that the other parent must join as a party to the suit within twenty days or the right to recover damages under this section shall be barred. Failure of the other parent to timely appear shall bar such parent's action to recover any part of an award made to the party instituting the suit.

        (4) In ((such)) an action under this section, in addition to damages for medical, hospital, medication expenses, and loss of services and support, damages may be recovered for the loss of love and companionship of the child and for injury to or destruction of the parent-child relationship in such amount as, under all the circumstances of the case, may be just.

        (5) For the purposes of this section:

        (a) "Financially dependent for support" means substantial dependence based on the receipt of services that have an economic or monetary value, or substantial dependence based on actual monetary payments or contributions; and

        (b) "Significant involvement" means demonstrated support of an emotional, psychological, or financial nature within the relationship, at or reasonably near the time of death, or at or reasonably near the time of the incident causing death.
