Looking to plan your next global adventure? When you return from overseas, the new International Arrivals Facility (IAF) is now open at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport (SEA) to welcome you home to the Pacific Northwest! The IAF replaces the former 50-year-old customs processing facility and improves passengers’ experience with breathtaking views, shorter waits, more gates for international aircraft, faster connections between flights, and an expanded and beautiful facility. It took nearly three million labor hours to construct this facility, including nearly one million minority labor hours (35%), over 500,000 apprentice hours (19%), and more than 139,000 (5%) labor hours by women. The modern welcome also advances the Puget Sound as a leading tourism and business gateway, supporting the continuing recovery of international travel. By this fall, travelers can see the world with nonstop flights servicing international destinations by 25 airlines. That’s up from pre-pandemic numbers of 42 services, 26 destinations, and 22 airlines.

of past laws. In three areas of crucial importance for our state, I am part of teams tasked by the Legislature with solving knotty problems to ensure Washingtonians get the best out of some of the nation-leading programs we have established. In this pamphlet, I'll update you about the work we have done on those three issues: • Paid Family and Medical Leave • WA Cares, the nation's first public long- term care insurance program • The future of commercial aviation in Washington am excited to return to Olympia in January after two years of mostly virtual sessions. That means we will again have debate on the Senate floor and in-person testimony in committees. We'll continue the options for written and some virtual committee testimony to keep our work transparent and accessible and to make it easier for people to testify. Most importantly, I hope you will stay in touch so that I can best represent your issues and concerns in Olympia. In this pamphlet, you'll find a variety of ways you can be part of the legislative process, from start to finish.

Operations are limited to flights by certain non-piston aircraft, with a tem- porary ban on sight-seeing flights. Only on Sunday is there a night-time curfew. Day-time take-offs must occur at least 2000 feet off-shore. Evening take-offs must occur 3000 feet off shore. No float planes may land closer than 1000 feet. The ferry system is concerned about safety hazards, and the condo-owners, about noise. Boeing Field Choppers Although it has yet to present its Master Plan to the King County Council, KCIA management proposed in June to sign a 29-year lease with Classic Helicopters to expand their facilities at Boeing Field. “They are doing this backwards,” pro- tested Seattle Commission on Airport Affairs President Mike Rees. “They are signing the long-term leases, then mak- ing the plan, and finally studying the noise and pollution. This effectively cuts citizen participation out of the planning process.” Nevertheless, the lease was pushed through the King County Council’s Commerce, Trade and Eco- nomic Development Committee by its chair Dwight Pelz and later adopted by the full…
