Washington State Senate passes bills on gun-free zones, domestic workers rights, childcare access
The Washington State Senate has recently passed several notable bills, including one that expands gun-free zones and another that protects domestic workers' rights. The gun-free zone bill, sponsored by Sen. Javier Valdez, prohibits firearms in parks and government buildings, although it exempts concealed pistol license holders. Meanwhile, the Domestic Workers’ Bill of Rights aims to provide minimum wage and protection from discrimination for domestic workers, advancing to the state House despite some opposition. Additionally, the Senate passed a bill streamlining childcare access for military families by easing licensing requirements for childcare providers near military bases. Another measure, House Bill 1291, seeks to reduce the financial burden on families by exempting delivery services from medical deductibles in maternity care. These legislative actions reflect ongoing efforts to address various social issues in Washington State.
