Washington Gov. Christine Gregoire is taking action on the last of 335 bills passed by the recent session of the Legislature. 

After signing 32 bills on Monday, she faced a stack of more than 40 bills on Tuesday, including the $306 million supplemental budget to increase spending this year.  Gregoire could use her veto to trim sections of the bill.  

Another bill would ban toxic chemicals in toys, such as lead. Toy makers oppose it and say it could ban toys with electronics inside, while child health advocates are pushing Gregoire to sign the ban into law.  She could also sign a measure providing future tax relief to people who qualify for the Federal Earned Income Tax Credit. 

On Monday, Gregoire approved state assistance for local enforcement agencies in preventing and combating street crime.  The governor also approved the use of tolls to help finance a new $4 billion floating bridge across Lake Washington, and a bill giving newspapers a tax break for their online advertising. 

Gregoire legally has until Saturday to complete work on the hundreds of bills sent to her by lawmakers, but her staff says she expects to complete that work by Tuesday.

Once the signings are finished, the governor’s re-election campaigning begins.  Gregoire plans to visit newspapers across the state Wednesday and Thursday.  She starts a re-election bus tour of the state on Monday.
