We passed a package of legislation to make voting easier and fairer in our state, setting a national example for other states to follow. We also passed several bills that put people first and which will have an immediate impact on communities, including expanding access to financial aid for Dreamers, banning the cruel practice known as \u201cconversion therapy\u201d on LGBTQ youth, advancing equal pay and preventing gun violence.<\/p>\n<p>The Senate passed 308 bills, 98 percent of which received bipartisan support, and finished its work in just 60 days \u2013 the first time since 2014 that the Legislature has ended session on time. That work included a cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) for 72,000 teachers and public employees in the PERS and TRS Plan 1 retirement programs, the first since 2010, and a health care insurance subsidy for retired or disabled teachers and public employees.<\/p>\n<p>This session\u2019s achievements reflect the hard work, grit and determination of the people of Washington. Our work in Olympia depends on the input of advocates and constituents who bring their perspective and expertise to the table as we shape policies that affect everyone.<\/p>\n<p>I hope you will continue to <a href=\"http:\/\/sdc.wastateleg.org\/saldana\/contact-2\/\">reach out to my office<\/a> with questions, suggestions or ideas for next year.
