Commercial or 'Paid' Surrogacy is STILL Not Legal in WA State

I know that many have been misinformed regarding WA state and the new laws. Commercial or Paid surrogacy is STILL not legal in WA state. I testified on the bill this year and last year. What happened is that the senate took everything surrogacy out of the HB 1267 bill and kept in the domestic partner portion in it and that is what passed. Here is a link of the summery to that final HB 1267 bill that will become effective July 22. Lets hope that next year offers a better solution for those needing surrogates here in the great North West!
