Budget Time! — Week 11 Legislative Update

To close the projected budget shortfalls predicted over the next four fiscal years—estimated at $10 billion to $16 billion—Senate and House Democrats announced revenue proposals last week. The Senate’s package would generate more funding than the House proposals, and both budget writers have indicated some cuts, and savings will be needed to balance the operating budget over the four-year outlook. Listen to the Senate’s press conference here and find a breakdown of both the Senate and House revenue proposals here.

Yesterday, both Senate and House Democrats released their operating and transportation budgets. Capital budgets will be released on March 31st. Find all the latest published budget proposals from the House, Senate, and Governor on the Washington State Fiscal Information website.

Today, the SPS School Board released a Legislative Update for Week 11 and the Washington Association of School Administrators also published a special report: This Week in Olympia – Senate & House Release 2025-27 Budget Proposals

SCPTSA 5263 Special Education Funding Testimony

THANK YOU to SCPTSA Co-president Samantha Fogg for presenting strong testimony on E2SSB 5263 Concerning Special Education Funding last night. SCPTSA has been consistent in our message to the Legislature for years—our state’s choice to fail to fully fund basic education based solely on disability is a civil rights issue that our legislature must address.

You can support 5263 by submitting written testimony here until 4 pm today (March 20th). Join SCPTSA and tell members of the House Appropriations Committee we are counting on them. They must maintain the Senate’s funding levels and support. We cannot let them reduce funding to the paltry amount that Appropriations had previously passed.

SB 5123 – Expanding protections for certain students to promote inclusivity in public schools.

➜ Support (PRO) with written testimony by Tuesday, Mar 17 • 1:30 pm

SCPTSA says: As student civil rights are under attack at the Federal level, definitions and protections at the state level become even more important.

SB 5177 – Considering the experiences of historically marginalized and underrepresented groups when identifying professional development resources on certain topics.

➜ Sign in PRO by Tuesday, Mar 18 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: Making sure teachers have access to the resources they need to support all students is critical to being able to create a sense of belonging for all students in school. Support this bill to support our teachers so they can in turn support all students.  

SB 5192 – Concerning school district materials, supplies, and operating costs.

➜ Sign in PRO by Wednesday, Mar 19 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: This is "keep the lights on" money. PTAs are often asked to pay for basic costs of keeping a school running, such as paper. In 2023-24 alone, the in Seattle Public Schools the gap between our district's utilities and insurance expenditures and state revenue was $6,339,080.  This bill will help, but it won't fully close the gap. We'll take the boost, but ask our legislators to keep in mind that insurance costs increase at the rate of wildfires, not just IPD.

SB 5263 – Concerning special education funding.

➜ Sign in PRO by Wednesday, Mar 19 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: Special education is how students with IEPs access basic education. It is not acceptable that our state denies funding for basic education for some students solely because those students are disabled. Our district is obligated, legally, morally, and ethically, to provide access to education for these students, whether or not our state chooses to fund. Last year alone, our state came up short for Seattle Public Schools Students by $74 million.

SB 5253 – Extending special education services to students with disabilities until the end of the school year in which the student turns 22.

➜ Sign in PRO by Thursday, Mar 20 • 7 am

SCPTSA Says: Under current law, school districts cease serving a student as soon as the student turns 22. This law would allow qualifying students to complete the school year in the year that they turn 22.

HB 1296 – Promoting a safe and supportive public education system.

➜ Sign in PRO by Thursday, Mar 20 • 9:30 am

SCPTSA Says: This bill helps to clarify and align language to make sure that the rights of students are honored. We are proud to support this bill and to support the legislators who stayed up late on the last night of policy cutoff to protect our students. The discussions weren’t easy, and we appreciate those who stand up for all of our students. LGBTQ+ students and families, we continue to fight for your rights and support you.

Lavender Rights Says: This bill amends I-2081 and strengthens student privacy rights, bolsters protections for transgender and gender-expansive students, guarantees access to inclusive curricula, and shields educators supporting student rights from retaliation. It also expands enrollment access for all families, regardless of immigration status or housing, and strengthens school accountability for safety and equity policies. Supporting this bill is crucial for creating safe, affirming, and equitable learning environments for all Washington students.

🚨 Action Alert ‼️

Email your Representatives and the House Appropriations Committee and let them know that they must put HB 1310 on the agenda and pass it out of committee before cut off! 

WHAT IS HAPPENING

House Appropriations has removed HB 1310 from their agenda, meaning Chair Ormsby is killing this bill. 1310 is Representative Pollet's OSPI request bill to fund Special Education.

House Leaders had told us that they would add significant funding for Special Education this session but Representative Stonier's bill (1357) fails our students and does not provide a significant increase in funding for Special Education. 

In order to fulfill their claims that they will add significant funding, our legislature must:

• Eliminate the Cap
• Significantly increase the multiplier
• Address Safety Net
• Provide training on inclusion for more than 25 schools.

We cannot continue to fail to fund a basic education for some students solely based on the fact that they are disabled.

If the House moves forward with 1357, they would only be increasing funding for Special Education statewide by $100 million.  This is much less than Senate bill 5362 which would provide $500 million, and far, far less than the $670 million in 1310.

House leadership told us last year that they needed to address funding for Special Education during the long session.  This is the long session. 

Ask them to live up to their promises to support all students in accessing basic education — including students with disabilities.

Chair Ormsby and Members of Appropriations,

Last year House leadership told us that significant investment in Special Education would come during the long session, but 1310, the only House Bill that addresses all 3 levers — the cap, the multiplier, safety net — and supports inclusion and accountability has been removed from the agenda for Appropriations.  

I am writing to ask that you fulfill your promise of significant investment in Special Education and put HB1310 back onto the agenda for Appropriations and pass it out before cutoff.

For far too long, Washington has failed to live up to its paramount duty for some students, solely based on the fact that they are disabled. A budget expresses our values and you must honor the values espoused in our state constitution, and amply fund a basic education for all students, including those with disabilities.

1356 adds a mere $100 million statewide, but in Seattle alone our state fails to meet its obligations to students who qualify for Special Education by $74 million.

Pass 1310 out of Appropriations before the 5PM on Friday.

Thank you for your prompt attention,
[ insert your name ]

SSB 5186 — Concerning local funding for school district facilities.

➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 24 • 12:30 pm

SCPTSA Says: Across the state we keep seeing bonds fail because of the need for a super majority. Support schools statewide, and allow a majority of voters voting to authorize school district bonds.

SSJR 8200 — Amending the Constitution to modify local funding authority for school district facilities.

➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 24 • 12:30 pm

SCPTSA Says: Here in Seattle we are grateful to be able to pass our levies, but across the state school districts rely on bonds to be able to pay for school construction. Support this change otherwise the State Constitution to allow districts to pass bonds with a simple majority.  

Please help email Chair Ormsby TODAY!

HB 1569 and 1795 are at-risk for not making the fiscal cutoff deadline on Friday.

HB 1569 — Increasing tax exemption transparency and accountability.

SCPTSA says: Our state is struggling financially, and it is time for our legislators to examine the tax exemptions alongside the spending. Some of these exemptions have been in place for close to 100 years, with no sunset date. The amount of revenue we do not bring in due to exemptions exceeds the amount that we spend. Even though 31 Representatives, including Appropriations Chair Ormsby, co-sponsored this bill, it has not yet had a hearing.  

➜ Please email Timm.Ormsby@leg.wa.gov TODAY and ask for 1569 to get a hearing and pass out of Appropriations this week.

HB 1795 — Addressing restraint or isolation of students in public schools and educational programs.

SCPTSA says: Isolation of students (solitary confinement) causes lifelong harm. The Washington State Special Education Advisory Council recommends that isolation be banned, that chemical and mechanical restraint be banned, and that restraint be reduced in Washington’s schools. While Seattle Public Schools bans isolation of students, this practice persists across the state.

➜ Please email Timm.Ormsby@leg.wa.gov TODAY and ask for 1795 to get a hearing and pass out of Appropriations this week.

➜ Sign in PRO by Tuesday, Feb 18 • 7 am

SCPTSA Says: For too long the histories of Asian Americans, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander have not been taught in our schools. Our students deserve to see themselves in the curriculum, and to know their histories.

HB 1834 – Limiting the harmful effects of social media on kids' behavioral health by enhancing data privacy and content delivery restrictions, prohibiting platforms from pushing content to kids during school and sleep hours, and equipping families with the tools necessary to ensure a healthy relationship with digital media.

➜ Sign in PRO by Tuesday, Feb 18 • 12:30 pm

SCPTSA Says: Check out the Children’s Alliance one-pager for more info

The following bills are at-risk for not making the policy cutoff deadline on Friday. Please help send messages to legislators today asking them to schedule these bills.

HB 1051 – Permitting the recording of individualized education program team meetings.

➜ Please see this blog post by Seattle Special Education PTSA and email Representatives Santos, Rude, and Walsh today as requested.

SCPTSA Says: IEP meetings are often stressful, and have "eduspeak" or language that is very specific to education. It can be hard to follow, and to retain information from these meetings, and being able to go back and listen to what was discussed and agreed to could help to reduce misunderstandings amongst the adults who are supporting the student.

HB 1569 – Increasing tax exemption transparency and accountability.

➜ Please email Chair Ormsby timm.ormsby@leg.wa.gov today to ask for a hearing on HB 1569, increasing tax exemption transparency and accountability.

SCPTSA Says: Did you know that there are tax exemptions that have been on the books for scores of years with no sunset date? In this time of budget deficit our state must consider the cost of tax exemptions alongside the spending.  Write Appropriations Chair Timm Ormsby and ask him for a hearing on 1059, and tell him, in order for our budget to truly reflect our values we need to look at everything in it.

HB 1795 – Addressing restraint or isolation of students in public schools and educational programs.

➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 10 • 12:30 pm

SCPTSA says:  Here in SPS, we have a school board policy protecting students from isolation and limiting restraint, but across the rest of WA children don’t have that protection. A report by the ACLU and Disability Rights Washington details harm to children across the state, most often impacting our youngest learners. Children should be safe at school, and they should not be subjected to abuse that causes life long harm. Legislators wouldn’t pass legislation on this last year, so we are hoping this year we can get better protections in place for students.

SB 5187 – Providing adequate and predictable student transportation.

➜ Sign in PRO by Tuesday, Feb 11 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: Last year alone, SPS spent $20,010,210 more on student transportation than our district was provided by the state. The yellow school bus is a cultural touchpoint in this country that symbolizes school. Getting to and from school safely is critical for education. We need improvements to transportation funding.

SCPTSA testimony on HB 1051

On Monday, Feb 3 at the House Education 1:30 pm public hearing, SCPTSA Treasurer June Nho Ivers gave strong testimony in support of HB 1051—permitting the recording of individualized education program team meetings. Thank you June for standing with disabled students and parents as we advocate together for a system that recognizes the rights and supports the humanity of every family in our public school system!

 
 
“Hello Vice Chair Shavers, Chair Santos Members of the Education Committee,

For the record my name is June Nho Ivers, testifying on behalf of Seattle Council PTSA and a constituent of 46th District. Testifying PRO on 1051.

As part of the support we provide to over 80 PTAs and PTSAs, we are sometimes called into more complex IEP meetings, particularly meetings for students in unique circumstances, often including students whose family support systems may have barriers to access including, but not limited to language access. However, even for our families for whom everything is going well—where the team works well together, where progress is being made, and parents are happy with the level of support—in the best circumstances many parents still find IEP meetings to be overwhelming and find that there is information that they missed or want to revisit later.  

Recording of IEP meetings is helpful for our families, for understanding, and for reducing conflict that is due to miscommunication or misremembering of what happened in the meeting.  

It is to the benefit of the student for everyone on the IEP team to have a shared understanding of what happened, what are strategies to support the student, and to help everyone to work together for the benefit of the student.  

For our caregivers who have access needs, for whom they are new to navigating the American Public School system and the IEP system, recording these meetings is vital.  

In an IEP meeting, the language is technical, “eduspeak”, and it is even difficult for native English speakers raised in this country to navigate.  These meetings are filled with small details that have large impacts. Most of our families are not lawyers or teachers. Yet we know that the best outcomes happen when every team member—especially parents and family—are a full part of the team.  

Thank you for your consideration and we ask that you pass this bill. ”

SB 5362 – Concerning victims of crime act funding.
➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 3 • 9:30 am

SCPTSA says: This bill provides a state level funding floor for victim services, and provides much need stability during a time when federal funding is in chaos. Victims of crimes include children, and these services are very much needed.

HB 1051 – Permitting the recording of individualized education program team meetings.

HB 1257 – Extending special education services to students with disabilities until the end of the school year in which the student turns 22.
➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 3 • 12:30 pm

SCPTSA says: Under current law, school districts cease serving a student as soon as the student turns 22. This bill would allow qualifying students to complete the school year in the year that they turn 22.  This would mean it would be possible for students to have all the usual pieces of a final year of school, including the ability to graduate with a class, rather than leave on their birthday.

HB 1338 – Concerning school operating costs.
➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 3 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: This is "keep the lights on" money. PTAs are often asked to pay for basic costs of keeping a school running, such as paper.

HB 1404 – Increasing student access to free meals served at public schools.
➜ Sign in PRO by Monday, Feb 3 • 3 pm

SCPTSA says: This bill says it well "The legislature, in support of students, families, and productive learning environments, and in recognition of financial challenges that can create barriers to academic achievement, declares that no student should ever experience hunger or food insecurity within a public school. The legislature, therefore, intends to provide all requesting students with access to school meals that are served without charge."
