Ugh, I believe you're right. Neither of these were on the floor calendar. Sigh... Good job these things move fast ;-)

They have not adjourned. Feb 5 was the last day bills could move from Committee of Origin "cut off". SB 6309 did move from Financial Institutions and Insurance to Senate Rules. It needs to get through there, then on to the full Senate. Didn't look at the House side... The Senate Bill is definitely still "alive".

By adjourned, I meant adjourned for the day on Friday. Sorry - should have been more clear.
You're correct in saying that the Senate bill is in rules pending a decision on whether it makes it to the floor. I believe the new last chance date for Senate action will be 2/17.
My pessimism is based on conversations I've had with several legislators on other issues and who have little expectations for much more to get done outside of budget related bills -- and their expectations there aren't high, either. I'd love to be wrong, and I think they would be, too, but they seemed of the opinion that quite a few bills with merit were going to die. Lots of conflicts in other areas are spilling over into everything else still going on, and I'm hearing lots of talk of collateral damage along the way. Friday's confirmation rejection did not help an already tense atmosphere.

Agree with all you've said. Was just clarifying not dead, but still stuck in Rules... where many good bills go to die.

I'll have to do some searches when I find time to figure out who in the state made it so we couldn't get these. I'd like to use that to raise awareness of who personally was responsible so we can change who we have elected through the next round of voting.

The House bill now appears to have advanced slightly further in the process: HB 2355 - 2015-16
. Still haven't heard from my legislators whether they think it's likely to get an up or down vote before Wednesday.

So reading the link, it states for the 16th (ie. Tuesday):
Third reading, passed; yeas, 92; nays, 6; absent, 0; excused, 0
Was something else happening today?

Versions have now passed in both the House and the Senate. The bill that originated on the House side (with some amendments) looks like the one likely to be adopted. Yesterday, the Senate committee gave that version the thumbs up and now it awaits Senate floor action.

Bill passed yesterday: SB 6309 - 2015-16
On to the Governor to be signed. I haven't read through the bill recently, so I can't say exactly what it might mean or exactly what Tesla might do with it.

Cannot confirm, though
"The 27 stopped by Inslee included measures dealing with wholesale vehicle dealers, pharmacy assistants, fire-sprinkler systems and growing industrial hemp."
?
From Inslee orders special session, vetoes 27 bills to spur action

The legislative site said SB 6309 was delivered to the Governor.
SB 6309 - 2015-16
But I can not find it on the Governor's Bill Singing site as either signed or vetoed.
Request Rejected
Not sure why the link says "request rejected" but link seems to work to Governor's site.

It was not one of the bills vetoed, and is still awaiting the Governor to take action.
The link to the Governor's website Six shared is correct, but I don't know why it was renamed, either: Request Rejected
(Edited to add - the new software must not like the link for some reason -- even though it says "Request Rejected," it still works.)
That particular page was slow to update when he'd first issued the blanket veto of the other 27 bills, and it's not one I regularly use, so I don't know how quickly it would be updated when it's signed.

Thanks. 6606 was the wholesale dealers one and not pertinent. I cannot find 6309 anymore on the link previous?

6309 is still listed here: SB 6309 - 2015-16
It won't appear on the Governor's site until it's either signed or vetoed. It will be updated on the Legislature's site to reflect what action the Governor took at that same time.

I was told today from the Seattle Service Center that the extended warranty is now available in Washington.
