Governor signs executive order to assess regulatory efficiency and address affordable housing
Summary
The governor signed Executive Order 25-02, described in remarks as assessing regulatory efficiency and addressing Washington’s affordable housing (transcript contains the word “bridal”), calling it a lengthy order intended to tackle housing barriers.
The governor announced she was signing Executive Order 25-02, which she described as assessing regulatory efficiency and addressing Washington’s affordable housing "bridal" (the transcript contains that wording). She characterized the order as lengthy and tied it to prior attention during the inaugural address.
According to the signing remarks, the order aims to review regulatory processes that affect housing supply and affordability. The governor did not outline specific regulatory changes, agency assignments, timelines, or funding tied to the order during the brief remarks.
The transcript contains the word "bridal," which appears to be a transcription error; the intended term is likely "crisis" or "burden," but that was not clarified in the remarks. Additional details on how the administration plans to measure regulatory efficiency, which agencies will be involved, and whether the order directs rulemaking or funding were not provided.
The signing was delivered alongside two other executive orders and followed by expressions of thanks to staff and transition-team contributors.
