SIXTY THIRD LEGISLATURE - REGULAR SESSION
FIRST DAY
House Chamber, Olympia, Monday, January 13, 2014
The House was called to order at 12:00 p.m. by the Speaker. The Clerk called the roll and a quorum was present.
The flags were escorted to the rostrum by the Washington State Patrol Honor Guard. The Speaker led the Chamber in the Pledge of Allegiance. The prayer was offered by Pastor Greg Asimakoupoulos, Chaplain of Covenant Shores Retirement Community.
Pastor Greg Asimakoupoulos: “Gracious Creator, For the chance to play another day, we give you thanks. For the emotions that energize our Super Bowl dreams, we are grateful. Thank you, God, for fresh starts and new beginnings. Thank you, Father, for a new day. As this new legislative session dawns, enlighten these who hear my voice with brilliant ideas that will dispel the shadows of doubt that darken the optimism of those who have grown cynical of the political process. Lift the low-lying fog of familiarity that prevents these lawmakers from seeing new possibilities. Where limited visibility clouds their view of cooperation and compromise, penetrate the overcast. You who once declared "Let there be light!" fill us with the light of day as we seek to reflect the Son of Righteousness empowered by energy that is found in humility, honesty, forgiveness and trust. For our Governor, the Speaker and each representative, we ask your blessing, gracious God. May the 12th Man loyalty that unifies our state characterize the teamwork of these who scrimmage daily toward a common goal.
In your holy name we pray, Amen.”
There being no objection, the House advanced to the third order of business.

RESIGNATION OF REPRESENTATIVE GARY ALEXANDER

P 0 Box 40600
Olympia WA 98504
Dear Ms. Baker,
Pease accept this letter of my resignation as Washington State Representative, District 2, Position 1effective December 31, 2013.
It has been my pleasure to serve as an elected official for 20 years' - 3 years as an Olympia Port Commission and 17 years as a State Representative for the citizens of District 20 and District 2. If you combine that with 25 years in the executive branch of state government, I have enjoyed a career of working with thousands of dedicated public officials and state employees.
I am hopeful that the example of the two recent negotiated bi-partisan budgets will be the model for the future.
I wish a fond farewell to all my friends and colleagues in both chambers, and I will always cherish having had the opportunity to serve.
Gary C Alexander
State Representative
SPEAKER’S PRIVILEGE
The Speaker asked the body to welcome its new members.
POINT OF PERSONAL PRIVILEGE
Representative Kristiansen:
Thank you Mr. Speaker. Well, Welcome to our new members. Good Luck. Hopefully we will only have one session this year, right Mr. Speaker?
First of all, I would like to welcome you all back, I think there are a few of us who have been here all year and so the rest of you, thank you for coming and visiting us for the next couple of months.
Mr. Speaker, I want to thank you for the opportunity to speak before the body today and I want to thank the members of the House of Representatives and the citizens of the state of Washington for at times putting up with us and hopefully you understand that we do have your best interests in mind with the work that is before us.
Mr. Speaker, I want to let you know that myself and my caucus come here for this 2014 session ready to continue the work that I believe we ended on in 2013 of some bipartisan support among each other, working together in a bipartisan fashion. I think, Mr. Speaker, that you will find that my caucus and your caucus have a lot of things in common. We are concerned about education. We are concerned about the most vulnerable amongst us. Yes, there are some transportation issues. There are a lot of things, I think, Mr. Speaker, that the public may not be aware of and that is that most of the bills that actually leave out of this body are voted on unanimously if not near unanimously.
There are a few of these issues however and even some that I mentioned before that have this tendency to bring out the emotions, to bring out the debate that sometimes can get a little bit awkward, but I do want you to know Mr. Speaker, that you know while I think that we do have some common ground while I believe that our focus Mr. Speaker as we move forward is going to be towards not only getting out of here on time but getting out of here with a responsible budget that is sustainable that deals with the outcomes of our children in Washington state when it comes to our education system. I know that’s what we all want. I know Mr. Speaker that as we move forward on these things that there are going to be differences and as a minority party the minority party’s job is to represent the minority and that is what we want to make sure you understand. We are here to do, we will debate the issues we are prepared to do that as those issues come before us. But I also want you to know Mr. Speaker and members of this body that we will do so in a respectful fashion. Though we are all citizens of the state of Washington, I am born and raised here, and I wouldn’t be doing this job and I know you wouldn’t be doing this job if you didn’t care about the citizens of this state and the future of where we’re going not only as a state and as a country.
Mr. Speaker, I want to thank you again for the job you are doing up here and if you have any questions I’d be glad to meet with you in your office or with a smaller group of people.
Again, thank you Mr. Speaker.
SPEAKER’S PRIVILEGE
Speaker of the House Frank Chopp: “Thank you. Before I begin my remarks, please let me introduce my wife, Nancy Long.
With only 60 days, we have plenty of challenges and opportunities before us. Let me highlight a few:
Last year, we made some progress in funding basic education. This year, we must take the next steps to meet our constitutional responsibility --- the education of our kids, and to support those who work ---day in and day out ---to carry out that responsibility. We must turn McCleary into reality!
Last year, we made the greatest advancement in health care access in state history, ensuring that all of our people can have the health care they need. With our highly successful Washington Apple Health program, we are national leaders in health care. This year, we must focus our attention on helping those with mental illness and those with disabilities. It is a disgrace to park people in hospital hallways. It is a disgrace to let the homeless mentally ill die on the streets. This has got to end!
Just a few weeks ago, we took action to save tens of thousands of jobs. Now we must work towards ensuring that people throughout our state are able to share in the recovery from the Great Recession. While our economy is growing, so is income inequality. We must help create jobs for the unemployed and promote prosperity for all.
We have a choice to make: We can ignore these challenges and make up excuses for not acting, or we can make progress on the critical issues of our time, and make a real difference in the lives of our people, particularly in the lives of young people in our state.
Let me give you one shining example of how to do that: the College Success Foundation. For many years now, this legislature has provided a bit of financial support to the Foundation. It is one of the best investments we have ever made. For over 10 years, the Foundation has provided a unique system of scholarships and mentoring that has allowed thousands of underserved, low-income, high potential students finish high school, graduate from college, and succeed in life. It is a proven model. For example, its program in Tacoma, has a near perfect record helping students graduate from high school. At its annual event this past fall, the Foundation introduced its new CEO, Yolanda Watson Spiva. She has a 20 year record of service to young people and a PhD from Georgia State University. Yolanda, would you please stand to be recognized? That same event also recognized the co-founder and former CEO of the Foundation, Bob Craves. Over 10 years, he raised nearly $500 million for scholarships and programs that allowed more than 10,000 students to go to college. In years past, he also served as Chair of Washington’s Communities in Schools, and as Chair of the Washington State Higher Education Coordinating Board. Way back when, Bob was also one of the founding officers of a little wholesale company that you might have heard of. Bob, you have made a real difference in the lives of so many! Please stand so we can thank you! What was most inspiring about the Foundation’s event, were the speeches by the students who were helped by the Foundation.
The name of one student: America Yorita-Carrion. America! What a great name! I'd like to share with you America's story. In the year 2000, she was 17 and a senior at Davis High School in Yakima, an honors and an International Baccalaureate student with a 3.8 GPA. She hoped to go to college, but had no idea how'd she get there. Her senior year, she can remember walking into her school cafeteria, eager to learn about a new scholarship. America showed up, overcoming her fears that this would be yet another opportunity that would not be available to her. She was fortunate to have a loving and supportive family who made education a priority. But her reality, like the reality of far too many students, is that even with love and support, the dream of a college education was beyond reach. Her parents were agricultural fieldworkers in the Yakima Valley. Starting when she was 9 years old, America would arrive in the fields by 5:30 in the morning with her parents and siblings to pick fruit before the sun came up. It was hot, hard, physical work. It wasn't their favorite thing to do, but the children knew they were helping their family. As they filled their buckets with apples, pears, or cherries, they dreamed about a future filled with possibilities. So when the College Success Foundation arrived at her school, she had hope. But it was a cautious hope in the face of reality. Can you imagine her family's joy when she was selected as one of the Foundation’s Achiever Scholars? A year later, she was attending Whitman College. In 2005, she walked off stage with a college degree in hand. The College Success Foundation validated not only her dreams, but the dreams of her parents who sacrificed in unimaginable ways to give America and her siblings a better life than they had.
There are thousands of stories like America’s. America could not get away from work to be with us today. But we have two of her sisters, Genesis Carrion and Maria Rocio, and we have other young people here who have their own dreams. Moses Chege, originally from Kenya and now a student in Tacoma, a Junior ROTC Cadet, varsity athlete, and worship leader in his church. Tania Santiago, from Redmond, who is Miss Hispanic Seafair, and works as a paralegal. Fredy Zarate, accounting student, who works the graveyard shift at a grocery store to make ends meet. Marco Garcia, from Tacoma, a Whitworth Graduate and a community leader. Cristina Martinez-Monano, a running start student at Green River Community College who works two part-time jobs to pay for college. Will you please stand and let us recognize you!
It was because of young people like these, that our own State Representative Phyllis Gutierrez Kenney, sponsored House Bill 1079 ten years ago, to promote equality for in-state tuition. Phyllis was herself a farm worker in a migrant family, pulling potatoes out of the ground in Wapato, starting when she was 5 years old. Phyllis is here with us today. Please join me in recognizing her! With the passage of House Bill 1079, we freed the dreams of thousands of young people to go to college.
For legislators here today, I ask that you find your own inspiration to increase opportunities for all of our young people. I often look to my own family for inspiration. My grandparents left Croatia and came to this country about 100 years ago. Some came without the proper paperwork, like my Uncle Slava, who made his way to south Tacoma. My relatives came to this nation, like many of yours, in the aftermath of wars, to escape religious persecution, to get a job, or to simply find a better life for themselves and their kids. Thank God they made it to America!
This is not just personal to me. It is fundamental to our state and nation. Our nation is a land of immigrants. Washington is the state that is most dependent on international trade. And in our state constitution, we are called upon to provide an education to all students who reside in our state.
My Uncle Slava – by the way, the word “slava” means “glory” in Croatian, he never had the chance to go to college. But, like many of your immigrant relatives, Slava was, in his own way, a dreamer. In fact, we are all dreamers. We dream about an education and a head start for our kids. We dream of the security of having health care to be there when we need it. We dream of a better wage in a good job, and a way to save for retirement. People come to Washington State from many places on earth. Yolanda from Georgia. America from Mexico. Slava from Croatia. I am so happy they came here. I know that Uncle Slava made south Tacoma a better place. And I am convinced that young people like America will make America a better place for us all.
Thank you for listening.

The results of the motion are as follows: If determined in the negative, the consideration goes on as if the motion had never been made; if decided in the affirmative it shall have the effect of cutting off all debate and bringing the house to a direct vote upon the motion or amendment on which it has been ordered: PROVIDED HOWEVER, That when a bill is on final passage or when the motion to postpone indefinitely is pending, one of the sponsors of the bill or the chair of the committee may have the privilege of closing debate after the previous question has been ordered.
If an adjournment is had after the previous question is ordered, the motion or proposition on which the previous question was ordered shall be put to the house immediately following the approval of the journal on the next working day, thus making the main question privileged over all other business, whether new or unfinished.

Duties of Committees
Rule 24. House committees shall operate as follows:
(A) NOTICE OF COMMITTEE MEETING. The chief clerk shall make public the time, place and subjects to be discussed at committee meetings. All public hearings held by committees shall be scheduled at least five (5) days in advance and shall be given adequate publicity: PROVIDED, That when less than eight (8) days remain for action on a bill, the Speaker may authorize a reduction of the five-day notice period when required by the circumstances, including but not limited to the time remaining for action on the bill, the nature of the subject, and the number of prior hearings on the subject.
(B) COMMITTEE QUORUM. A majority of any committee shall constitute a quorum for the transaction of business.
(C) SESSION MEETINGS. No committee shall sit while the house is in session without special leave of the speaker.
(D) DUTIES OF STANDING COMMITTEES.
(1) Only such bills as are included on the written notice of a committee meeting may be considered at that meeting except upon the vote of a majority of the entire membership of the committee to consider another bill.
(2) A majority recommendation of a committee must be signed by a majority of the entire membership of the committee in a regularly called meeting before a bill, memorial, or resolution may be reported out: PROVIDED, That by motion under the eighth order of business, a majority of the members elected to the house may relieve a committee of a bill and place it on the second reading calendar.
Majority recommendations of a committee can only be "do pass," "do pass as amended," or that "the substitute bill be substituted therefor and that the substitute bill do pass."
(3) Members of the committee not concurring in the majority report may prepare a written minority report containing a recommendation of "do not pass" or "without recommendation," which shall be signed by those members of the committee subscribing thereto, and submitted with the majority report.
(4) All committee reports shall be spread upon the journal. The journal of the house shall contain an exact copy of all committee reports, together with the names of the members signing such reports.
(5) Every vote to report a bill out of committee shall be taken by the yeas and nays, and the names of the members voting for and against, as well as the names of members absent, shall be recorded on the committee report. Any member may call for a recorded vote, which shall include the names of absent members, on any substantive question before the committee. A copy of all recorded committee votes shall be kept by the chief clerk and shall be available for public inspection.
(6) All bills having a direct appropriation shall be referred to the appropriate fiscal committee before their final passage.
(7) No standing committee shall vote by secret written ballot on any issue.
(8) During its consideration of or vote on any bill, resolution, or memorial, the deliberations of any standing committee of the house of representatives shall be open to the public.
(9) A standing committee to which a bill was originally referred shall, prior to voting the bill out of committee, consider whether the bill authorizes rule-making powers or requires the exercise of rule-making powers and, if so, consider:
(a) The nature of the new rule-making powers; and
(b) To which agencies the new rule-making powers would be delegated and which agencies, if any, may have related rule-making powers.
(10) Standing committee subcommittees established in Rule 23 have the same powers and duties as standing committees.
(11) Insofar as practicable, testimony in public hearings should be balanced between those in support of and in opposition to proposed legislation, with consideration given to providing an opportunity for members of the public to testify within available time.
Standing Committees - Expenses - Subpoena Power
Rule 25. Regardless of whether the legislature is in session, members of the house may receive from moneys appropriated for the legislature, reimbursement for necessary travel expenses, and payments in lieu of subsistence and lodging for conducting official business of the house.
The standing committees of the house may have the powers of subpoena, the power to administer oaths, and the power to issue commissions for the examination of witnesses in accordance with the provisions of chapter 44.16 RCW. Before a standing committee of the house may issue any process, the committee chairperson shall submit for approval of the executive rules committee a statement of purpose setting forth the name or names of those subject to process. The process shall not be issued prior to approval by the executive rules committee. The process shall be limited to the named individuals.
Vetoed Bills
Rule 26. Veto messages of the governor shall be read in the house and entered upon the journal. It shall then be in order to proceed to reconsider the bill, refer it, lay it on the table, or postpone its consideration to a day certain.
The merits of the bill may be debated before the vote is taken, but the vote on a vetoed bill cannot be reconsidered.
In case of a bill containing several sections or items, one or more of which has been objected to by the governor, each section or item so objected to shall be voted upon separately by the house. Action by the house upon all vetoed bills shall be endorsed upon the bill and certified by the speaker.
Vetoed bills originating in the house, which have not been passed notwithstanding the veto of the governor, shall remain in the custody of the officers of the house until the close of the term, after which they shall be filed with the secretary of state.
Suspension of Compensation
Rule 27. (1) Any member of the house of representatives convicted and sentenced for any felony punishable by death or by imprisonment in a Washington state penal institution shall, as of the time of sentencing, be denied the legislative salary for future service and be denied per diem, compensation for expenses, office space facilities, and assistance. Any member convicted of a felony and sentenced therefor under any federal law or the law of any other state shall, as of the time of sentencing, be similarly denied such salary, per diem, expenses, facilities, and assistance if either (a) such crime would also constitute a crime punishable under the laws of Washington by death or by imprisonment in a state penal institution, or (b) the conduct resulting in the conviction and sentencing would also constitute a crime punishable under the laws of Washington by death or by imprisonment in a state penal institution.
(2) At any time, the house may vote by a constitutional majority to restore the salary, per diem, expenses, facilities, and assistance denied a member under subsection (1). If the conviction of a member is reversed, then the salary, per diem, and expense amounts denied the member since sentencing shall be forthwith paid, and the member shall thereafter have the rights and privileges of other members.
Smoking
Rule 28. Smoking of cigarettes, pipes, or cigars shall not be permitted at any public meeting of any committee of the house of representatives or within House facilities.
"No smoking" signs shall be posted so as to give notice of this rule.
