Broader representation on Washington’s correctional industries committee

Beginning July 27, 2025, Washington’s Correctional Industries Advisory Committee has 11 voting members serving staggered three-year terms. The secretary appoints nine: three labor representatives, three business representatives, and three members of the public. Business members must represent a range of industries and employer sizes. The governor appoints two people from underrepresented populations with direct lived experience, as defined by state law. Those two appointees cannot currently be incarcerated in total confinement. The House speaker and Senate president each appoint one nonvoting legislator from each of their chamber’s two largest caucuses. Legislators serve two-year terms, ending sooner if they leave their chamber. Voting members elect a chair and any other officers from among themselves. Voting members receive compensation and department-paid travel expenses and per diem under state rules. Legislative members receive reimbursement under separate state rules. The secretary provides staff, facilities, and equipment needed for the committee’s work. These changes do not directly change household benefits, costs, or eligibility.
