AIA Washington Council

This is a bill tracking list used by the AIA Washington Council to monitor Washington state legislation.

The Bill Tracking Summary is divided into three priority categories (High, Medium, or Low) indicating how much effort the Council puts into working on the proposals. For instance, a High priority is closely monitored and the AIA/WA actively works to educate lawmakers about the proposal. A Low priority is tracked for its impact, but the Council does not actively engage in its progress.

Each bill is also given a support rating: Support, Oppose, Neutral, or Monitor. Neutral bills are ones that the Council has an interest in its progress, but has actively decided not to support or oppose. Bills under the "monitor" position are tracked and no position has been developed by the Council. Bills with "Concerns" have provisions the AIA/WA may not be able to support. "Status" refers to a bills status in the legislative process. For more information on bills visit: www.leg.wa.gov.

Calendar Items show which bills are being actively considered by the Legislature in the upcoming week. The "TVW" designation indicates those actions that will be covered by Television Washington. Most broadcasts are available for a podcast/MP3 download. Visit www.tvw.org.

If you have questions about these bills or would like to propose a bill to be added to the Councils tracking list, please contact Stan Bowman, Executive Director, at bowman@aiawa.org or 800-722-0394.
