Specifying the status of bills, resolutions, and memorials.

HCR 4407 is a procedural resolution that streamlines how pending legislative items from Washington's 2025 session are handled in the 2026 session. It specifies that bills, resolutions, and memorials not passed in 2025 will automatically carry over to 2026 in the same chamber, retain their original number, and keep their highest status (e.g., "passed committee") from the previous session. This administrative change affects legislative staff and future session workflows by eliminating the need to renumber or restart these items, aiming to improve efficiency. The resolution passed unanimously in early 2026 and requires no new policy changes.
