Tonight, I was watching the debate for Senate Bill SB 6281, Personal Data Privacy Law, in the Washington State House of Representative. There were many amendments to the Bill and many were not adopted to provide clarification for this upcoming law.

However, with the debate heated up and some legislators believing that the bill would fail, the bill did pass. The vote was 56 Yea and 41 Nay, 1 excused.

The next steps are for the Senate to review and vote on the changes made by the House of Representatives. Then off to the Governor if passed.
