Convening a joint session for the purpose of receiving the State of the Judiciary message.
SCR 8402 is a procedural resolution convening a joint session of Washington's House and Senate on January 22, 2025, at 12:15 p.m. in the Senate Chamber. Its sole purpose is to allow lawmakers to formally receive the annual "State of the Judiciary" message from the Chief Justice of the Washington State Supreme Court. This resolution does not change any laws or policies - it merely schedules a standard legislative procedure for the judiciary's annual report. The bill was adopted and signed by both chambers in early January 2025.
