King County Prosecuting Attorney celebrates legislative wins

As we wrap up the 2026 legislative session, I want to thank the team of amazing subject matter experts from the King County Prosecuting Attorney's Office who fought to pass important legislation this year.

Key wins this year, include:
fighting off a 44% reduction in crime victim services funding so that community-based domestic violence shelters, crisis lines and more maintain year over year funding.
SB 5015 which closes key loopholes that have prevented prosecution in some child sex abuse cases AND now includes AI-generated images of non-identifiable minors as child sex abuse material.
SB 5855 which will prohibit local, state, and federal law enforcement from wearing face coverings in Washington State. At a time where masked federal agents are terrorizing communities across Washington, this is one way our state can push back.

    If you were charged with responsibility to capture and remove illegal alien criminals from our communities would you support SB 5855 ? For anyone without a death wish for themselves or their loved ones, I think the choice is clear.
