Representative Orr, Heavey, R. Meyers, King, Campbell and Riley spoke in favor of passage of the bill.
Representatives Sommers and Lisk spoke against the passage of the bill.
Representative Sommers yielded to a question by Representative Lisk.
Representative Lisk: Representative, as one of the original authors of the 1977 LEOFF II systems, was the intent to allow employees under the LEOFF II system the right to sue?
Representative Sommers: I think I had made it clear. The intent was that officers would be included under industrial insurance, the standard procedure for industrial insurance and that they would not under have the right to sue. Yes, I was the prime sponsor of that legislation and it's very clear in my mind that the intent of the legislature was to provide industrial insurance to these members but they were to be treated as everyone else in industrial insurance is treated; that they do not have the right to sue.
Representative Heavey: Mr Speaker that is an inappropriate question. It does not speak to the matter of the bill before us. RCW 41.26.280, the LEOFF I language says, with permission of the Speaker, the injury or death resulting to a member from intentional negligent act or admission the governmental employer of the member, the widow, widower, child or dependant of the member, shall have the privilege to benefit under this chapter and also have the cause of action against the governmental employer as otherwise provided by law. In other words, the right to sue for intentional or negligent acts. The bill, prime sponsored by Representative H. Sommers in 1977, said the provisions to the following sections of this chapter, meaning the same chapter as I just quoted, shall apply only to persons who establish membership in the retirement system on or before September 30th 1977. In other words, the following sections that are going to be listed only apply to left one people. They get up, right up, and find sections and they leave off the section I just quoted. Implication in the law held by superior court, three superior court judges have ruled that section 280 also applies to left two members, that they have the right to sue in addition to workers compensation covers. I think its very clear in the bill by the lady from the 36th district that is the way the legislature intended it to be and I'm sorry we have to debate this, I urge your support.
Representatives Orr and Heavey again spoke in favor of the bill.
Representative Lisk spoke again spoke against the bill.
