WSSSC: with Michele’s OK, I am sharing this information FYI in case useful. A provision expanding eligibility to veterans’ spouses is expiring this August 1. Thanks for catching it, Michele! Joe

Since this is state law, sunsets and no longer a requirement unless extended by a bill or colleges can choose to honor it as there own policy. The section in the Policy Manual is set to be pulled August 1.

Hey gang,
Scott might know better, but I assume that we are required to do this by the feds, so it can expire and well will just keep offering this to vets.
Thanks,
Ruben Flores, MS (Vet)

Arlen, Julie, Scott, and Yokiko: see below. I have pasted in the relevant RCW below Michele’s query. What is your take on this, and how do we figure out what happens after August 1 (and for which group of veterans, national guard members, or spouses)?

Hi, Joe.
Not sure if this is a question you can answer but thought I would see what you might know. RCW28B.15.624 expires August 1, 2022. Do you know how a RCW like this is renewed or will it just sunset and be done?
Thanks.
