Lockdown the Washington State Legislature to Fund K-12 Education

Pursuant to Washington State Supreme Court Order No. 84362-7, if the Washington State Legislature has not complied to fully fund K-12 education at the end of their 2015 legislative session, we ask the Supreme Court to place the legislature in lockdown in their House and Senate Chambers until such time that they comply.

Why is this important?

The Washington State Legislature has ignored both an order from the state Supreme Court and Initiative 1351 passed by the voters to fully fund K-12 education as mandated by the State Constitution. It is in their power to create a tax system that can fully fund all education and other state services that are needed in Washington state.
