The Washington State Legislature is closing up shop today: Democrats in the Legislature expect to wrap up work between 7 and 8 pm, which will mark the fifth year in a row that lawmakers turned in their work on time — the last time that happened was 1899. Right now the House is at east until 7 pm. The Senate’s now heading to the floor to vote on bills that would give businesses a B&O tax break and incentivize cities to build affordable housing.

Update, 9:50
