RESIGNATION LETTER

Governor Jay Inslee

Office of the Governor

PO Box 40002

Olympia, WA 98504-0002

Dear Governor Inslee:

Due to my recent election as the next Mayor of Seattle, I am writing to you today submit my notice of resignation from the Legislature. The effective date of my resignation as the Senator of the 43^rd Legislative District will be at 12:00 p.m. on December 16, 2013.

Even though I will not assume office as Mayor of Seattle until January 1, the demands of the transition into office are considerable and deserve my full time and attention. In addition, the residents of the 43^rd District deserve sufficient time and opportunity to select my replacement before the 2014 Legislative Session begins in January.

My 18-year career as a legislator, first as a member of the House and then as a member of the Senate, has been an honor and a privilege, and has provided me experiences under nearly every legislative scenario. I have served in the majority in both chambers, in the minority in both chambers, and in an effective tie in both chambers. As chair of all three budget committees, I have written Operating, Capital and Transportation budget proposals. And I have had the great opportunity of sponsoring and passing difficult but critical legislation that has made a positive difference in the lives of Washingtonians: from passing the largest transportation funding package in state history, doubling funding for low-income housing, and passing the highest emission standards in the nation, to achieving civil rights protections for gays and lesbians, securing three successive years of domestic partnership rights and, finally, passage marriage equality for all.

These are experiences I am proud of, humbled to have had, and will never forget. I look forward to keeping open lines of communication with you and with the Legislature in my new capacity as Mayor of Seattle, and to working collaboratively and productively to make progress on behalf of residents all across the great state of Washington.

Sincerely,

Edward B. Murray

RESIGANTION LETTER

PO Box 40002

Olympia, WA 98504-0002

November 11, 2013

Dear Governor Inslee:

It is with sadness but without reservation, that I submit to you my notice of resignation as Senator of the 38^th Legislative District effective immediately.

I have come to realize that my constituents and the people of our state would be better served by someone who can fully commit their time to a job that requires undivided dedication. The combination of legislative session, a series of special sessions and interim responsibilities are important, exciting work, but require full time attention. As a husband, father of two girls and an attorney, I feel that I am unable to meet that requirement.

I am proud of my time here in Olympia. It was an honor to be asked to work on bringing WSU to Everett as one of my first responsibilities. I was proud to lead the fight against gun violence and the fight for education funding and small businesses.

My three years as Senator are an experience I will never forget. Unfortunately my work in Olympia takes me away from my family far too much. They deserve a full-time husband and father just as the people of the 38^th deserve a full-time Senator. I feel that I cannot be both at this time.

Thank you for your leadership and your understanding.

Nick Harper

RESIGNATION LETTER

January 7, 2014

The Honorable Jay Inslee

Office of the Governor

PO Box 40002

Olympia, WA 98504-0002

Dear Governor Inslee,

It is with deep regret that I must inform you of my decision to resign from the Washington State Senate, effective immediately. Although I had planned to retire from the Legislature at the end of my term later this year, I have reluctantly determined with the assistance of my family that recent health problems including my age, memory problems, and a recent diagnosis of Alzheimer’s make it impossible for me to represent my constituents in the manner in which they deserve. I believe it is in everyone’s best interest–my family, my constituents, the Senate, and the great State of Washington – for me to step down at this time.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your help and support over the years. It has been a tremendous privilege to be a member of the State Senate and work with such wonderful colleagues.

Sincerely,

Paull Shin

Washington State Senator

21^st Legislative District

REMARKS BY THE PRESIDENT

REMARKS BY MISS KATT NGUYEN

Miss Katt Nguyen: “Good afternoon everyone. As the 2013-2014 Capital Lakefair Queen I’m actually here today to welcome all of you to a new legislative session. My name is Katt Nguyen, short and sweet for Katherine, I am an International Bachelorette senior at Capital High School. As graduation seems to be coming closer and closer, I feel like I’m one step closer to pursuing my aspirations which is to be a pediatrician. I hope to attend the University of Washington this upcoming fall and I hope to major in bio chemistry. So, it’s going to be a very long and hard journey but definitely very worthwhile one. Actually being a part of the Capital Lakefair program has helped me in regards as to my aspirations. The Capital Lakefair program offers twenty-eight thousand dollars in scholarships to its recipients each year and I, as the Capital Lakefair Queen, received five thousand dollars in scholarship while each of the other Princesses received twenty-five hundred dollars in scholarships. So on behalf of my Lakefair Court I would like to thank the Capital Lakefair program for its generosity and rewarding experiences. So, being a Capital Lakefair Queen I have learned that with the crown comes a lot of responsibilities. I represent not only my school but my community as I venture out throughout our community in Washington, Oregon and Canada. So, this Lakefair experience has opened not only my eyes but also my heart to all of the events and festivals that go on throughout the northwest I have been able to be a part of such things like the downtown Arts walk here in Olympia and various other events that go on throughout our northwest. This experience has taught me that the Lakefair experience is not just about myself but it’s about what I can do to make the experiences of other people a lot better and more positive. So, I thank the Capital Lakefair program and because of the Capital Lakefair program I am honored to be here today. I have the privilege to welcome all of you to a new legislative session and it’s not an experience every seventeen year-old can talk about. So, once again I would just like to say thank you for having me here. It is definitely quite an honor and I wish you all a very successful legislative session. Thank you.”

INTRODUCTION OF SPECIAL GUESTS

The President welcomed and introduced Mr. Bob Barnes, Executive Director and Mrs. Serry Barnes, Capital Lakefair President, Ms. Peggy Brink, 2014 Royalty Chair; Mr. Thomas Nguyen , and Mrs. Angela Nguyen parents of Miss Nguyen who were all present in the gallery.

MOTION

On motion of Senator Fain, the Senate advanced to the third order of business.

REMARKS BY SENATOR PARLETTE

Senator Parlette: “Well, it’s with great honor I nominate Senator Sharon Brown for this office but it is with great sadness that at this time we do need to find a replacement and I know we will have our time later to honor Senator Shin. But President I am thrilled to nominate Sharon Brown for this position of the Office of Vice President Pro Tempore. Since the last time we were together in this chamber the number of women has increased by one and the number of women in our caucus has reached a record high. In that light it is an honor to nominate Senator Sharon Brown to the ranks of Senate leaders. As the mother of five she probably has a lot of experience in bringing order to a group but on top of that she is an accomplished attorney and has experience serving as the Mayor Pro Tempore for her home town of Kennewick. I am confident that she will quickly master the parliamentary procedures that are needed for this position.”

REPLY BY THE PRESIDENT

President Owen: “Senator Benton has moved to separate the question between rule 56 and rule 41. Is that correct Senator? For clarification of members for those who follow the rules and I know all of you know them frontward and backwards so if this was a bill his motion would be out of order but this is a resolution. The President believes that it is appropriate; it is alright to divide the question. So, where we will divide obviously in Rule 41 after 15.15 Ways & Means.., 23 will be the first question that you’ll be voting on, Rule 41 which is the make. Senator, did you wish to make comments?”

PARLIAMENTARY INQUIRY

Senator Chase: “It looks to me that Human Services & Corrections are losing two, is that true? Is that how? I’m somewhat confused by these numbers. It appears that some of them are getting more and some of them are getting less. Is that correct?”

President Owen: “That is what was stated in the previous motion on the make-up of the committees and the resolution. That is correct. There has been changes to the numbers. The President is not perfectly aware of what exactly the numbers are but you can see as they are stated on here. I mean compared to the previous committee assignments.
