Gov. Jay Inslee today announced the extension of two proclamations in response to the continuing COVID-19 pandemic. The extensions were approved by the Legislature in a July 30 letter.
Both proclamations are extended to September 1, 2020.
Garnishments - 20-49.7
Protects CARES Act stimulus payments, as well as state and federal unemployment payments, from bank account garnishments for consumer debt.
Temporary Licensing - Dental and Pharmacy Graduates - 20-59.3
Extends the previous waiver/suspension of legal requirements that allows recent dental, dental hygiene and pharmacy graduates to obtain their temporary licenses and begin working if certain conditions are met. It has been amended from the July 31 extension to include denturists to the list of professional graduates who may obtain their temporary licenses.
