Thanks, Tom. I just checked now, and it looks like it's been returned to the House Rules CommitteeRead More for a third reading, as of June 11. http://apps.leg.wa.gov/billinfo/summary.aspx?bill=2068&year=2013

Both the House and the Senate must pass a bill within the same session to move on for the Governor'sRead More signature. After each Session/Special Session, all other bills are returned to the House of Origin and is technically in play, though not necessarily viable, until the next Legislature - in this case, the 64th Legislature in 2015-2016.

As an elementary student, the Pledge of Allegiance was part of the daily classroom routine. InRead More middle school, I only recited the pledge during all-school assemblies. I don't believe I was ever asked to recite it in high school. I am surprised to hear than middle school-aged students couldn't define those key words from the Pledge of Allegiance. Even if they hadn't been required to recite it in class, surely those words must have been covered on spelling tests (which, in my education, were also definition tests).
