The Legislature took “meaningful steps in the 2013 legislative session to address the constitutional imperative of amply providing for basic education.” The funding provided, however, represents “only a 6.7% increase over the current constitutionally inadequate level of funding” and the state “cannot realistically claim to have made significant progress when its own analysis shows that it is not on target to implement ESHB 2261 and SHB 2776 by the 2017–18 school year.” 5

6 The Legislature failed to comply with the Court’s December 2012 Order and the new Order directs the state to “submit, by April 30, 2014, a complete plan for fully implementing its program of basic education for each school year between now and the 2017–18 school year.” The plan must also include “a phase-in schedule for fully funding each of the components of basic education.” The 2014 session presents “an opportunity to take a significant step forward.”

7 “The need for immediate action could not be more apparent. Conversely, failing to act would send a strong message about the state’s good faith commitment toward fulfilling its constitutional promise.” The Legislature must “demonstrate, through immediate, concrete action, that it is making real and measurable progress, not simply promises.” http://1.usa.gov/1evdg54
