The roll call is on the FAQ page.
The Governor has signed the bill; legislation has passed. Four sections were vetoed (see below).

ESHB 1791 - final bill as signed
Gov. Inslee signed, but vetoed four sections of the ESHB 1791 yesterday: Secs. 3, 5, 7, and 8.
Even with the veto, it preserves the concerns we had, as well as some gains.
The CACC is disbanded and will take no action.
The Airport Working Group is created with the broader representation we sought.
Recommendations are advisory and have no deadlines.
The veto eliminates greenfield sites; ours and elsewhere. Only existing airports are considered.
The legislation is no longer an "emergency", taking effect in 90 days instead of immediately.
