Week in Review: Conservative Initiatives, Comprehensive Plan, and Ax Murderer Controversy Conservative Initiatives Pass Democratic Legislature In a surprising move, the Democratic-majority in the Washington state legislature passed three conservative ballot initiatives into law, bypassing the need for a public vote. The initiatives ban a state income tax, expand parental rights regarding instructional materials and student records in public schools, and give police broader authority for vehicular pursuits. Barnett warned the parental rights measure could be wielded to out LGBTQ students: "It is outing trans kids, it is outing potentially gay and lesbian bisexual kids...it's a violation of the rights of privacy of children and teenagers." The decision avoids a costly campaign battle, but Barnett questioned if it signals Democrats being "willing to negotiate instead of fight" well-funded opposition. Mayor's Comprehensive Plan Faces Criticism Seattle Mayor Bruce Harrell's proposed 20-year Comprehensive Plan allows for just 100,000 new housing units, despite projections that 250,000 more people will move to the city. Critics blasted this as woefully inadequate to address the affordable housing shortage. Barnett called it "stunning in its lack of ambition" beyond mandated zoning changes. Fincher urged residents to attend public meetings and directly press the mayor's and councilmembers' offices, saying "They need to hear from you, their constituents." Revelation of Ax Attacks on Homeless People Raises Concerns  Weeks after a suspect's arrest, Seattle police admitted they withheld information about horrific ax attacks targeting the city's homeless population. The lack of public warning sparked outrage. Barnett speculated police view such crimes against the unhoused as "not affect[ing] the general public." Fincher condemned the "dehumanizing conversations and rhetoric...about visible street homelessness" that enable such violence. Both hosts emphasized the need for accountability and citizen engagement from Seattle's elected leaders on these intersecting crises around housing, public safety and inequality.   As always, a full text transcript of the show is available at officialhacksandwonks.com.

In this episode, David J.S. Ziff, Director of the Legal Writing Program and Senior Law Lecturer at the University of Washington School of Law, discusses his article "Book Review of The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation—The Worst System of Citation Except for All the Others," which was published in the Journal of Legal Education. Ziff provides a brief history of the Bluebook, the ubiquitous guide to legal citation that everyone loves to hate, and explains why efforts to replace it have all failed. Among other things, he observes that the complexity of the Bluebook may be its greatest strength, and reflects on how it can and should change in the future. Ziff is on Twitter at @djsziff. He provided the following citation to helpful sources!Richard A. Posner, The Bluebook Blues (reviewing Harvard Law Review Association, The Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation (19th ed., 2010))Fred R.
