The Washington Student Lobby, WashPIRG's partner in the effort to pass textbooks bill SHB 2300, met Saturday to wrap up the Legislative Session and determine the leaders for next school year. The WSL saw at least five pieces of legislation beneficial to students that they backed pass in Olympia, check out this article for info on some of them.
WashPIRG is also pleased to announce that ASUW Director of Government Relations Bryce McKibben was elected President. Bryce has been an incredible ally over the past year - leading efforts with the New Voters Project, pushing reauthorization of the Higher Education Act, and of course lobbying for the first textbooks price disclosure bill in the nation this year.
WashPIRG looks forward to continuing its relationship with the Washington Student Lobby, and combining our strengths to ensure the student voice is heard loudly in Olympia and DC!
