Inslee this year.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=5829&amp;Year=2019&amp;Initiative=false\">SB 5829<\/a> helps to recruit more volunteer firefighters by improving their pensions.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=6078&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2019\">SB 6078<\/a> allows fire departments to be reimbursed for the full cost of cleanup efforts.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=6131&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2019\">SB 6131<\/a> makes it easier for churches and other non-profits to raise money for capital projects.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=6052&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2019\">SB 6052<\/a> allows life insurance companies to promote healthier lifestyles for their policy holders by providing wellbeing devices like smart watches.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/app.leg.wa.gov\/billsummary?BillNumber=6139&amp;Initiative=false&amp;Year=2019\">SB 6139<\/a> extends a successful partnership between our public universities and aerospace sector by another ten years.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This session was marked by ending on time and passing a responsible budget that did not raise taxes on Washingtonians. Although this budget was changed due to vetoes by the governor in response to the economic impacts of COVID-19, the bipartisan effort to get it passed was admirable.<strong><a href=\"https:\/\/dev2.sdc.wastateleg.org\/mullet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2020\/02\/enew6.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1616 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/dev2.sdc.wastateleg.org\/mullet\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2020\/02\/enew6-300x206.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"206\" srcset=\"https:\/\/senatedemocrats.wa.gov\/mulletarchive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2020\/02\/enew6-300x206.png 300w, https:\/\/senatedemocrats.wa.gov\/mulletarchive\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/44\/2020\/02\/enew6.png 750w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Coronavirus Resources<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This has been an unprecedented few months for our state and the world. While we have each been impacted by this crisis in different ways, one thing that remains certain is that we will get through this together. I\u2019m proud to be working in a special committee with my legislative colleagues about the process of reopening. The governor recently appointed me to a task force discussing how best to aid small businesses and other companies during the gradual process of opening Washington back up. \u00a0In both of these roles, my experiences as a small business owner and legislator have guided me to ensure the right decisions are made while still prioritizing public health. Having been in the Senate since the Great Recession, I know how important a responsible fiscal approach will be in the coming months as we work to remedy the impacts of this crisis on Washington\u2019s economy.<\/p>\n<p>If you are searching for resources or information right now, the best place you can turn is Washington\u2019s official website \u2013 <a href=\"https:\/\/coronavirus.wa.gov\/\">coronavirus.wa.gov<\/a>.
