Week 9 Update--3/13/26
2026/03/13
Today is March 13th, and this is also our last TWIO, at least for the foreseeable future. My name is Marissa Rathbone, and I'm the Assistant Executive Director of Government Relations with WASA and a very proud product of Washington Public Schools. And that's part of why this work is never just policy to me. I know it's not to you either.
Week 8 Update--3/6/26
2026/03/06
We are now at the end of week eight of this nine week legislative session. Today is March 6th, and it marks the opposite chamber cutoff deadline for bills to pass out of the chamber opposite where they started.
Week 7 Update--2/27/26
2026/02/27
This week, both the House and Senate passed their proposed operating budgets. We are now entering negotiations between the chambers. Both proposals continue operating within an ongoing imbalance between spending and revenue. That gap does not resolve on its own.
Week 6 Update--2/20/26
2026/02/20
It's Friday February 20, and this marks the end of week six of a nine week legislative session. And if this week actually had some kind of weather pattern, it would be all of them.
Week 5 Update--2/13/26
2026/02/13
Public education matters, students matter, equity matters, and the future of our state matters.
Week 4 Update--2/6/26
2026/02/06
It's Friday, February 6th, and I'm really grateful you're here yet again. Taking time to stay engaged. Especially at such a busy point in your own school year and in our legislative session, I can assure you that your attention, your advocacy, and your willingness to stay connected during this very busy time really matters.
Week 3 Update--1/30/26
2026/01/30
Yesterday I was joined at the Capitol by several of my colleagues from WASA, WSSDA and WASBO, along with superintendents, school business officers, school board members, and student board representatives from across the state. We came together for public education advocacy day.
Week 2 Update --1/23/26
