Statement from Speaker-designate Laurie Jinkins (D-Tacoma) on today’s Supreme Court ruling on public records

“House Democrats believe in open and accountable government. While we have already taken action toward better access to public records, we have more work to do. We are still reviewing the Court’s decision to determine its specific impacts, and will work with our colleagues in the House and Senate to move forward on implementing the decision to ensure transparency in government for Washingtonians.”
