“The COVID pandemic upended our economy — and with it, the finances of millions of families in Washington state and across the country. We need to do everything we can to help people get on solid financial footing — which is why I’m working to lower families’ costs, and on bipartisan legislation to help people save for their futures,” Murray said Tuesday in a statement. “I look forward to marking this bill up in Committee next week, and working with our colleagues to pass it into law.”
