The last of the rideshare bills (Uber, Lyft, etc.) failed to advance before the crucial February 14 cutoff deadline when bills needed to move out of their houses of origin. SB 6043, Sen. Steve Hobbs (D-Lake Stevens), was the sole surviving rideshare bill still advancing through the Legislature. This bill sought to consolidate the regulation of transportation network companies. With its failure to advance out of the Senate by 5 pm on February 14, the bill is considered dead for the 2018 legislative session.
