WOVE LEGISLATIVE UPDATES FOR THE 2018 SESSION

WOVE Legislative Update for CTE 3-19-18 | 2018 CTE Legislative Bills Budget
- The session came to an end on-time Thursday, March 8 for the first time since 2014, “Sine Die.” Throughout the session the Legislature certainly did what it took to get through key bills and issues at an unprecedented pace. This session was a fast pace with high volume and complexity of bills introduced. Washington ACTE list of bills this session (see March 9 update) that were adopted by the Legislature, (look for CTE-related bills in yellow highlights) as well as those that did not make it through the process. While the CTE FTE funding proviso language for a “correction” did not make it into the supplemental operating budget as a stand-alone, one-time proviso. Details of CTE -related items in the supplemental budget for CTE is listed in the attachment, my thanks to OSPI for the details. We will now reassess where we are and develop an interim plan to move forward in the best interest of all CTE programs. More in-depth details of the session can be found in the following end of session reports available under the Highlights - Newly Released section of the Legislative Information Center's web page: http://leg.wa.gov/LIC.
