2. Every time the voters of the state of Washington have had the issue before them

they made the choice towards equality. I hope their legislature has the courage from that experience to make this reality.

One possible punt is the referendum process, where the legislature can say, "We don't really want to decide this thing, but we will give the voters a chance to give it thumbs up or down." That's a reasonable possibilty, as it gives Democratic legislators an out with conservative voter bases in their districts.
