⚠️ LEGISLATIVE ABUSE: Bill Flooding

79.1% of all bills were introduced on just 12 days. This is a deliberate tactic to overwhelm public scrutiny.

1559 Bills on Single Day 2026-01-12
2479 Bills on Flood Days out of 3134 total
79.1% Flood Percentage Bills dumped at once
12 Flood Days 50+ bills each

Daily Bill Introduction Spike

Notice the massive spike - legislators dump bills all at once to prevent public review.

Why This Matters

🔍 Impossible to Review

No citizen, journalist, or advocacy group can meaningfully review 1,500+ bills introduced in a single day. This is intentional.

🎭 Hidden Agendas

Controversial provisions get buried in the flood. By the time anyone notices, bills have already advanced through committees.

⏰ Manufactured Urgency

Tight deadlines force rushed votes. Legislators vote on bills they haven't read because there isn't time to review everything.

🏛️ Accountability Dodge

When everything happens at once, no single bill gets scrutiny. Legislators can claim they didn't know what was in bills they voted for.

🗳️ TAKE ACTION: Fight Back

Washington State gives citizens the power to bypass the legislature. Here's how to fight back against legislative abuse.

📜 Citizen Initiative (I-___)

Bypass the legislature entirely. Propose your own law directly to voters.

Signatures Required: ~324,000 (8% of votes in last gubernatorial election)
Timeline: Must gather signatures within 6 months
What Happens: Goes directly to ballot OR legislature must act

Idea: Initiative to limit bill introductions to 50 per legislator per session, require 30-day public review period before votes.

WA Secretary of State - Initiatives

📝 Referendum

Challenge a law the legislature just passed. Put it to a public vote.

Signatures: ~162,000 (4% of votes)
Deadline: 90 days after session ends

Proposed: Bill Flooding Prevention Initiative

We need a citizen initiative that would:

  • Limit bill introductions to 25 bills per legislator per session
  • Require 14-day public comment period before committee votes
  • Mandate plain-language summaries for every bill
  • Ban "emergency" clauses that skip public review (except real emergencies)
  • Prohibit last-minute amendments that change bill substance
