GOAL Post 2017-Special 1
\nLegislative Update from Olympia 5 May 2017<\/h3>\n

NO ACTION ON BILLS<\/p>\n

I was at the annual NRA convention and meetings in Atlanta last Friday, but nothing happened anyway!<\/p>\n

Governor Inslee signed HB 1100 (CPL renewal postcard) a week before the session ended. The first postcards should go out in late summer (they have to set up the system first).<\/p>\n

Still awaiting the governor’s signature are HB 1501 (NICS denial police notification), HB 1612 (suicide prevention), SB 5268 (CPL renewal e-mail notification) and SB 5552 (limited I-594 background check exemptions.) (Correction, SB 5268 did squeak out just before the regular session ended.)<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The governor has 20 days to act on bills after the session ends. That means he has until 13 May to take action on the four bills listed above. Governor Inslee has three options available: he can sign a bill into law; he can veto an entire bill or part of a bill, in which case the legislature has the opportunity to override on the next session; or he can take no action, in which case the bill becomes law anyway. Why decline to take action? Maybe the governor doesn’t like it, but doesn’t feel it is important enough to veto. This is the guy who wants $8 billion in new taxes, despite the fact that the Republican-controlled Senate passed a balanced operating budget.<\/p>\n

At this point, 12 days into the up-to-30 day special session, no gun bills have been pulled back out, nor have new bills been filed.<\/p>\n

As next Saturday is the last day the governor can act on bills, I’ll likely get the next GOAL Post out over next weekend.<\/p>\n
