[QUOTE="Ignacio, post: 1206376, member: 434"] Having worked on a few bills over the years in Washington I would suggest those interested in WA passage would consider: [LIST][*]Look up the details of the bill, see if the legislator(s) on the sponsor page are yours, and reach out to them. [*]Look up other members of the committee its referred to, Transportation, and see if you have any legislators on them to reach out to. The first real test will be if it gets a hearing or not. [*]The chair of the Transportation Committee is not signed on to the bill. Rep. Clibborn is a strong leader in charge of an important committee. Getting her on board would obviously help. [/LIST] [LIST][*]"Not Officially read and referred until adoption of Introduction report". That's likely an indicator its not even officially in the committee yet. [/LIST] Things working for this bill: [LIST][*]One of the sponsors, Cary Condotta, owned a Yamaha dealership in Wenatchee. [*]Two of the sponsors are on the Transportation committee. One is Vice Chair (they seem to have tons of them on this committee), Luis Moscoso, He serves the Bothel area. [/LIST] Other things that would help the bill: [LIST][*]Support from the WSP/law enforcement...or at least not oppose it. I think this point has been the biggest challenge over the years. [*]Other legislators that have police background or experience supporting the bill. [*]What's the Senate side look like? Similar bill pending? [/LIST] [/QUOTE]
