Olympian Editorial on SB 6109 (Executive Session Tapes)
This editorial from The Olympian describes why it's good that the Senate passed SB 6109, which makes tapes of executive sessions exempt from disclosure. A good exemption from disclosure? Yes, because now agencies can tape their executive sessions without worrying about them being automatically disclosed--but, if there is a lawsuit or some other reason to have a record of what happened in the executive session, then the tape exists.
