    The dust is settling on Washington's 60-day legislative session, which wrapped up late last week.

    Lawmakers ended the short session by passing a supplemental budget and addressing some high-profile voter initiatives , three of which will be on the ballot this fall. The session also saw a number of retirement announcements, including Gov. Jay Inslee , whose term ends in January 2025.

    Olympia correspondent Jeanie Lindsay joins KNKX Morning Edition host Kirsten Kendrick to discuss the end of the 2024 legislative session.
