The State list for the Federal Stimulus transportation dollars is being heard on the House Floor right now. We have been testifying on this bill as it moved through committee and have been tracking it closely.
To tune into the floor debate go to http://www.tvw.org/media/livetv.cfm?CFID=2037776&CFTOKEN=78073697&bhcp=1.
Information on the bill can be found at http://flooractivityext.leg.wa.gov/default.aspx?chamber=3
Update:
House Bill 1978 passed off of the House Floor with a 67 to 28 vote. It will now move onto the Senate for further consideration.

Things are moving quickly in Olympia today. The House Stimulus bill that moved out this morning just passed out of the Senate moments ago with a 45 to 4 vote. It will not be delivered to the Governor's desk. Moving the bill on the same day shows how high of a priority this legislation is.
