2026 Legislative Session Action Alerts
Week of January 12
1. Sign in PRO for Law Enforcement Leaders Bill (SB 5974)
A hearing is scheduled for Jan 15 at 10:30 am in the Senate Law & Justice Committee. We need as many people as possible to sign in PRO by 9:30am on 1/15. This is an important way that legislators hear from the public about bills.
Why: This bill would modernize and strengthen laws concerning sheriffs, police chiefs, town marshals, law enforcement agency volunteers, youth cadets, specially commissioned officers, and police matrons.
How to sign in:

2. Sign in CON for the WA Cops Criminal Justice Training Commission Bill (HB 2220)
A hearing is scheduled for Jan 15 at 8:00 am in the House Safety Committee. We need as many people as possible to sign in CON by 7:00 am on 1/15.
Why: This bill would make the hearing panel 3 to 3 which we fear will deadlock decertification hearings. The bill would also lower the legal standard from preponderance of the evidence to clear and convincing.
