2026 Legislative Session
NoHLA in the 2025 Legislature
The state legislative session is a critical time for Washington’s health care system. From January through April 2025, the Washington Legislature will make decisions on hundreds of policy bills and budget proposals that impact health care. NoHLA reviews every health care bill and budget proposal to understand how it will impact access to health care.
We work in coalition with community organizations to provide a patient-focused perspective to legislators on health care issues that matter to Washingtonians.
