SR 8636 Washington Senate · 2025-2026 Regular Session

Honoring the Washington State University College of Medicine.

This is a ceremonial Senate resolution (not a bill with policy changes), adopted on March 21, 2025, to honor the 10th anniversary of Washington State University's Elson S. Floyd College of Medicine. It recognizes the college's role in addressing Washington's physician shortage by training doctors and health care providers, including graduates from 89 Washington communities and partnerships across 26 counties. The resolution specifically celebrates the college's achievements - such as graduating 248 physicians and 900+ health providers since 2017 - and acknowledges its dedicated students, faculty, and staff. It has no binding effect or new policy provisions; it is purely an expression of recognition by the Senate.
