"Fund statewide anti poverty programs, northwest news radio's corwin Hague explains. Sponsors of House joint resolution 42 O four proposed allowing funds held for the purpose of reducing persistent poverty to be invested in commercially traded stocks and bonds. That requires an amendment to the state constitution because that document only allows the state to invest in no risk securities. Cliff cawthon with habitat for humanity favors the amendment as a way to allow our young people to be able to buy homes in the future, to be able to fight stability. Since 1968, the state has occasionally amended the constitution to allow corporate investments prior beneficiaries include public pension or retirement funds, and funds held in trust for those with developmental disabilities. Because it is, after all, a change in the state's founding document, the voting public would have the final say. Corwin hake, northwest, news radio.

A war between two link light rail lines continues with supporters of the upcoming linwood line up in arms. We have the update from northwest news radio's corwin Hague. You may recall track issues involving the I 90 bridge have delayed this year's scheduled opening of the east side link to Redmond, an idea emerged to open a partial Bellevue only link line this year instead. Thursday, the sound transit board approved spending $6 million towards studying the so called east side starter line, the tradeoff, logistical issues would then delay the opening date of the long awaited linwood extension, as sound transit deputy CEO Kimberly Farley explained. The opening of the linwood extension before opening all of east link does mean that we will have less frequent trains to linwood when it opens than we had planned. Unsatisfied, sound transit board members in snohomish county want the timeline reevaluated, and in pierce county, board member Bruce dammeier is concerned about the ripple effect of a linwood delay.

The United States Supreme Court has ruled a recently passed Washington state law is discriminatory and unconstitutional. Corwin Hague reports, the high court is responding to a dispute over benefits for Hanford workers. Today's ruling settles an argument made before the nation's highest court in April. It says a Washington state law passed in 2018 is discriminatory because it seems to exempt the state from paying workers comp benefits to federal employees, like those working at the contaminated, Hanford nuclear reservation, the state had argued the new law fully covers those workers. In the ruling, though, justices say they find the laws language on that point ambiguous and therefore unconstitutional. Washington state attorney general bob Ferguson says in a statement, the Supreme Court decision will have no effect on Hanford workers because he says they were always protected under the 2018 law.
