The House consists of 98 elected officials who serve two-year terms. Every legislative district in Washington has two representatives who live in and represent the district. Voters elect the 98 representatives in every even-numbered year's election. Representatives serve on several committees that meet frequently during the legislative session to discuss proposed laws and hear input from the public.
Under the Washington Constitution, the Legislature meets in Olympia for a legislative session every year, beginning the second Monday in January. In odd-numbered years, the legislative session is 105 days; in even-numbered years, the legislative session is 60 days.
