The Washington State Developmental Disabilities Council has approved its legislative priorities for 2026 after a multistep review process over the spring and summer. At the October meeting, Council members also recorded a video highlighting the priorities and why they matter.
Now is a great time to connect with legislators before session begins, they have more time right now to hear your perspectives! The Session coming up will be challenging! We have lots of work to do together!
2026 Legislative Priorities:
• The DDC will continue to take on a leadership role in our efforts to provide education and information about Medicaid.
• The DDC opposes cuts that limit access to disability supports and services.
• The DDC supports efforts to mitigate the Caregiver Provider Shortage
