Summary

The Postsecondary Education Workforce Committee voted 14–0 (three members excused) in executive session to report Senate Bill 6258 — creating a nondisciplinary pathway for voluntary relinquishment of Washington Medical Commission licenses — out of committee with a do‑pass recommendation.

In executive session on Feb. 25 the committee considered Senate Bill 6258, which would grant the Washington Medical Commission rule‑making authority to create a nondisciplinary pathway for voluntary relinquishment of licenses issued by the commission.

Vice Chair Saladin moved to report SB 6258 out of committee with a do‑pass recommendation; the motion was seconded and briefly discussed. Representative Lee spoke in favor, citing the sensitivity around professionals relinquishing licenses and noting the benefit of a nondisciplinary option for retirees or those stepping away from practice. The clerk announced the roll call: 14 ayes, Representatives Nance, Root and Thomas excused. The chair recorded that SB 6258 was reported out of committee with a do‑pass recommendation.

The action was procedural and the committee did not record amendments during the executive action.
